[VBox-users] Trouble getting ClipBoard to work

[Boris <bo...@ca...>]

Hej Virtualists,

I'm having troulbles exchanging data from host to guest and vice versa:

Host:
VirtualBox version 7.2.4 r170995 (Qt6.8.2 on xcb) on Debian Trixie
Extension Pack same version
Guest:
Debian Trixie, only stable repos, Gnome on X11
Guest Additions installed

Neither the shared clipboard (paste is grayed out) nor drag and drop work:

DnD: Error: Drag and drop to guest not possible -- either the guest OS 
does not support this, or the Guest Additions are not installed.
Result Code:
VBOX_E_DND_ERROR (0x80bb0011)
Component:
GuestDnDTargetWrap
Interface:
IGuestDnDTarget {50ce4b51-0ff7-46b7-a138-3c6e5ac946b4}
Callee:
IDnDTarget {ff5befc3-4ba3-7903-2aa4-43988ba11554}

There is nothing in the VM log.

The clipboard works with a Windows guest.

What should I do?

Thanks and regards,


Boris
