SuSE 9.2 Guest - SuSE 12.3 Host, Virtualbox-4.2.1[68]

[Hermann Jurksch]

Hi,

with VirtualBox 3.08 and a 11.3 64 bit host, everything worked fine,
but with the newest versions of VirtualBox (rpm + extpack installed
on the 64 bit host, guest additions installed on 32 and 64 bit guests)
there are many problems: Shared folders work only on 32 bit guests,
and symbolic links in a shared folder to a directory on the host
are displayed as broken. Mouse pointer integration doesn't work correctly
on both 32 and 64 bit guests, shared clipboard etc. don't work at all.
Are these known issues?

Regards
Hermann

We are at VBox v4.2.18 by now.
The known-and-solved issues can be found on
