This will improve the video playback on the applications that you run on the virtual machine. So how can I use virtual box without getting mouse stuck inside virtual machines?Īlso, with most distros I thought the latest kernels would have guest additions installed automatically to correct screen resolutions, but every time I get a distro installed it's usually only 800圆00 resolution only?Īnyone know of a VirtualBox alternative that works out of box and doesn't have these issues? spencerp Posts: 3 Joined: 31. When trying to run videos and other graphics heavy stuff, if you see VirtualBox running slow, there is a possibility that you may be able to solve it by allocating more video memory to the virtual machine. I tried finding settings to change in the virtual box console itself, can't find anything that helps. I tried other key variations, don't work.

I tried "ctrl + alt" together, don't work. Of course any browser tabs currently open get "oh snap" errors etc for browser not in the virtual machine.

Hi, I've been trying various linux distros in virtual machines on Windows 7 64bit host machine and with certain distros the mouse gets stuck inside the virtual machine and I can't release it until I hit power button on front of PC tower, then cancel quick the shut down prompt screen.
