Title:
Unable to install VirtualBox Guest Service in 15.04
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in ubuntu-drivers-common package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Status in virtualbox package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
It is not longer possible to select VirtualBox Guest Service in 15.04.
The only options available are:
* Continue using a manually install driver
* Do not use the device
The option 'Using x86 virtualisation solution - guest addition module'
is no longer selectable. See the attached screen shot. This is from a
fresh install of Ubuntu MATE 15.04 daily (20th March) and no drivers
have been manually installed.
In light of the Virtualbox issue where new installs on Virtualbox have
a resolution of 640x480
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/virtualbox/+bug/1368784/)
this is going to be a frustration for many users.
