Hello, LocutusOfBorg.
I am absolutely certain that you are right in telling that line #8 of file
/etc/X11/Xsession.d/98vboxadd-xclient has never read
true # "VBoxClient: the VirtualBox kernel service is not running.
on Ubuntu 16.04.
Yet, I am absolutely certain, too, that I have checked the
Sorry but if that line has *never* been "true".
If it is that way (I don't want to say otherwise, because I can't check
mint), this is a change that comes from mint developers, something I'm
really not interested at all, unless they come to me asking to
integrate/fix something.
Feel free to
Hello, LocutusOfBorg.
In version virtualbox-guest-x11 (5.1.34-dfsg-0ubuntu1.16.04.2) line 26 of the
file
/etc/X11/Xsession.d/98vboxadd-xclient
now reads:
notify-send "VBoxClient: the VirtualBox kernel service is not running.
Exiting."
In version virtualbox-guest-x11
I am truly sorry Locutus but I have no interest in pursuing this bug any
further: my issues were fully addressed and my rig is back to full
functionality (and I more a of "an advanced user" than a developer of OS
software and/or apps).
I think you ought to contact them directly. Even if you are
I'm seriously more interested in the Ubuntu 18.04 and virtualbox 5.2, as
well as the mint that will result from that combination. Please ask mint
people to try re-enabling for the upcoming release, and test in a vm too
:)

Hi, Locutus
I went to the Mint forums and there is already a thread open on the
virtualbox-guest-utils package and yes, it seems that the issue was
related to a "buggy" virtualbox-guest-utils.
The issue was solved on Mint 18.x by the removal of the said package
triggered by updating the Update
Hello, can you please get in touch with mint people? I don't know what can be
this issue, for sure the guest utils should not be a reason for this.
I would like to understand if they have some changes wrt graphic libraries or
similar, maybe they have a different GL library or X server?

[ANSWER REGARDING COMMENT # 05 FROM LocutusOfBorg]
Hi Locutus
Yes, I was able to install v.5.1.34 and from the deb packages from
Oracle's website when I migrated to Mint 17 and later to Mint 18.1.
Although the VirtualBox program itself installs and loads alright and I
could build a new VM under
Hi, LocutusOfBorg
Is your request above (about "notify-send") for me or for user
"kolokolovorot"?
If your request is directed to me, please remember that with yesterday's
Mint Update Manager update to v.5.2.1.2 the said package "virtualbox-
guest-utils" was removed from my system. While running
can you please try this?
- notify-send "VBoxClient: the VirtualBox kernel service is not running.
Exiting."
+ notify-send "VBoxClient: the VirtualBox kernel service is not running.
Exiting." &
change the notify-send command, adding an "&" at the end, on file
It seems that I have the same issue here:
Host: windows 7 x64 VirtualBox 5.2.8
Guest: lubuntu 16.04 amd64
virtualbox-guest-dkms-hwe installed from standard repos (and associated
utils-hwe and x11-hwe).
After upgrading guest additions(the above three packages only) from
5.0.40 to 5.1.34 and
Hello, I pushed vbox 5.1.34 to Ubuntu xenial, can't you just ask mint
people to upgrade or use it directly? it should be installable in your
mint version.
the guest might have been autoremoved because of new hwe upgrade, maybe you can
install virtualbox-guest-utils-hwe on your system?
Hi, LocutusOfBorg, how are you?
Regarding your question I downloaded the .deb file directly from
Oracle's VirtualBox webpage at
https://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/5.0.40/
I originally installed the deb package for Ubuntu 14.04
hello, where does Oracle VirtualBox v.5.0.40 r115130 comes from? can you
please update it?
