Re: mouse pointer disappeared after upgrading to 6.0.1 in GNOME





I could try that, but I am a little nervous wandering away from a "stable" system.  Would I have to wait for the next point release for this to get fixed and how would I maximize my chances of this being fixed in 6.0.2? or sooner maybe?

Suggest you use VirtualBox 4.0.4 (released 2011-02-17)

#apt-get remove virtualbox3.2
wget -t 0
http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/4.0.4/virtualbox-4.0_4.0.4-70112~Debian~squeeze_i386.deb
(there's an AMD64 variant)
#dpkg -i virtualbox-4.0_4.0.4-70112~Debian~squeeze*.deb

wget -t 0
http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/4.0.4/Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-4.0.4-70112.vbox-extpack
#VBoxManage extpack install
Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-4.0.4-70112.vbox-extpack

Cheers
