Ii dkms 2.2.0.3-2ubuntu11.6 all Dynamic Kernel Module Support Framework Ii build-essential 12.1ubuntu2 amd64 Informational list of build-essential packages You can verify the installation by running the command below sudo dpkg -l | grep -E 'dkms|linux-headers-$(uname -r)|build-essential' Installing Guest Additions from Virtual Box Managerīefore you can proceed, you need to install some required packages such as Linux Kernel headers, dkms and build-essentials if they are not installed. This guide demonstrates the installation of Guest Additions on Ubuntu 18.04 virtual machine.

VirtualBox Guest Additions are designed to be installed within the guest operating system. tmp/vbox.0/r0drv/linux/memobj-r0drv-linux.Install VirtualBox Guest Additions on Ubuntu 18.04 UlAddr = vm_mmap(NULL, R3PtrFixed, cb, fLnxProt, MAP_SHARED | MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_FIXED, 0) tmp/vbox.0/r0drv/linux/memobj-r0drv-linux.c:215:58: error: ‘MAP_SHARED’ undeclared (first use in this function) did you mean ‘VM_SHARED’? What I did:īut then, while it's running, without any specific messages, it tells me to check /var/log/vboxadd-setup.log and there I see something like this: /tmp/vbox.0/r0drv/linux/memobj-r0drv-linux.c: In function ‘rtR0MemObjLinuxDoMmap’: Have a look at the VirtualBox HowTo in the # technical-issues-and-assistance:tutorials sectionĪctually, I tried that too, but I couldn't make that one work either. It seems the virtualbox-guest-utils package inherited from Arch no longer has all necessary components for the utilities to work as expected. Most of these questions was solved by using the Guest Additions ISO and installing from that.

I have recently seen a few questions relating to Manjaro VirtualBox Guests.
