Mouse not working in Virtualbox 6.1.14 with Arch Linux as Host
Reported by: | 404_vip_not_found | Owned by: | |
---|---|---|---|
Component: | other | Version: | VirtualBox 6.1.14 |
Keywords: | Mouse | Cc: | |
Guest type: | Linux | Host type: | Linux |
Description
I installed Kali Linux as Guest OS while the Host OS is Arch Linux. Whenever I go to Full-screen mode and return back to normal screen mode, the Mouse/Touchpad click is not working. I can move the cursor, but cannot click/tap or scroll through anything in both Guest OS (Kali) and Host OS (Arch).
Steps to Reproduce:
- Install Kali Linux as Guest and fully update the Guest OS.
- Reboot the VM.
- Switch to full screen mode with Host+F.
- Again, switch to normal screen mode with Host+F.
- Now, the mouse/touchpad stops working except moving the cursor in both Host(Arch) and Guest(Kali) OSs
This steps to reproduce fail rarely, but I can assure you it happens randomly each time when you stat up the VM and surf a bit.
When I shutdown my Guest(Kali) VM, then the mouse/touchpad operates normally as before.
