I use Ubuntu 16.04 and have installed VirtualBox-5.1.38_Ubuntu r122592 and also VBoxGuestAdditions.iso by this command:

$ sudo apt-get install virtualbox-guest-additions-iso

Previously I created some virtual machines and shared clipboard between Host and Guests (bidirectional). Yesterday I created another guest and did these:

  • mounting VBoxGuestAdditions.iso into the guest

  • running sudo sh ./VBoxLinuxAdditions.run in mounted iso (in guest):

    Verifying archive integrity ... All good.
Uncompressing VirtualBox 5.1.38 Guest Additions for Linux...........
VirtualBox Guest Additions installer
Removing installed version 5.1.38 of VirtualBox Guest Additions...
Copying additional installer modules ...
Installing additional modules ...
vboxadd.sh: Starting the VirtualBox Guest Additions.

  • Devices -> Share Clipboard -> Bidirectional

  • rebooting guest

But "clipboard sharing" is not enabled, however I can do copy/paste between older created guests and host. How I can solve this problem?
