How to Check/Verify whether the Guest Additions are installed Properly?

Post by Shafty »

Hi Members,
I have installed CentOS 7 (Minimal Installation - Command line only) over VirtualBox on Windows 10. Very recently, I believe I have successfully installed the Guest Additions too. But the problem is even after installing it, I am not able to trace any evidence proving that GuestAdditions are installed Completely. Especially, The Mouse Pointer Integration is not Done. As same like the MotherBoard Settings are also still Disabled Only. Sincerely Requesting your replies. Thanks in advance.

With Hope,
Prabhakaran

I would assume that mouse pointer integration requires a guest GUI. The only GAs features that will work will be those having nothing to do with graphics, e.g. guestcontrol, or shared folders.
