I installed a Lubuntu guest (Ubuntu+LXDE) in VirtualBox on Windows. I also installed the guest additions, however, the clipboard was not working.
To my surprise, there was an option to enable it: Devices->Shared Clipboard, and it was disabled by default!
Is that for all systems, or just for Linux guests? And why would such a user-unfriendly default be set?
Well, it made me reinstall several times the Ubuntu guest, thinking maybe something was wrong with the guest additions, or the version (14.04) is too new and still buggy, until I found that option. VMWare enables it by default, so this behavior was surprising to me. – sashoalm – 2014-05-23T13:13:57.083
