Copy and paste not working with Arch as guest on virtualbox

psycho_tea_drinker · 2013-07-10 09:51:35

In my ~/.xinitrc file I have the following:

exec awesome
/usr/bin/VBoxClient-all
VBoxClient-all &

I have checked the /usr/bin directory and there is no VBoxClient-all file.

I have installed the virtualbox-guest-utils aswell as adding the following to /etc/modules-load.d/virtualbox.conf:

vboxguest
vboxsf
vboxvideo

Thanks.

Thank you! The problem was exec *something* should be on the last line.
