Hi Fernando;

  Yes, I have installed the Guest Additions on both guest OS instances.

cd /cygdrive/c/Program Files/Oracle/VirtualBox

./VBoxManage.exe showvminfo trombone | grep 'Drag and drop'
Drag and drop Mode: Bidirectional

./VBoxManage.exe showvminfo bassoon | grep 'Drag and drop'
Drag and drop Mode: Bidirectional

Yet drag and drop works on trombone (Debian) but does not work on
bassoon (Fedora).

Looking at the link you provided.

Thanks,
Ken Wolcott
