Oracle VirtualBox释放被捕获鼠标键盘的默认快捷键

Posted 2023-05-04

参考技术A Host+I。
VirtualBox中的Host键默认是：RightCtrl键，就是键盘上右边那个“Ctrl”键。Host键可以点击OracleVMVirtualBox管理器的左上角“管理”->“全局设定”->"热键"重新设定。

VirtualBox虚拟机CentOS安装增强功能Guest Additions

VirtualBox虚拟机CentOS安装增强功能Guest Additions

转自简书

没有安装Virtual Box增强功能Guest Additions的虚拟机操作很不方便，比如：

• 虚拟机的分辨率最大只有1024x768；
• 鼠标被虚拟机捕获后要按右Ctrl键才能释放，否则只能再虚拟机里移动；
• 剪贴板不能共享

安装Guest Additions可以解决上述所有问题。
以CentOS 7.3虚拟机为例，如果安装CentOS时没有选择Development Tools组，需要先安装kernel-devel和gcc
$ sudo yum install -y kernel-devel gcc

通过VirtualBox的 设备 | 安装增强功能... 菜单可以加载VBoxGuestAdditions.iso，可以直接点击Run安装或者执行
$ cd /run/media/centos/VBOXADDITIONS_5.1.22_115126
$ sudo sh ./VBoxLinuxAdditions.run

有时安装会出错

查询log发现是找不到和Linux内核匹配的源文件
$ cat /var/log/VBoxGuestAdditions.log

vboxadd.sh: failed: Look at /var/log/vboxadd-install.log to find out what went wrong.

查询kernel-devel版本是3.10.0-514.26.2.el7.x86_64，而Linux内核版本是3.10.0-514.el7.x86_64，确实不一致。如果安装CentOS时选择了Development Tools组，kernel-devel版本和Linux内核版本是匹配的，则不会出现这个问题。
$ rpm -qa | grep kernel-devel

kernel-devel-3.10.0-514.26.2.el7.x86_64

$ uname -r

3.10.0-514.el7.x86_64

可以使用下面两个命令中的一个安装和Linux内核版本匹配的kernel-devel
$ sudo yum install -y "kernel-devel-uname-r == $(uname -r)"
$ sudo yum install -y kernel-devel-3.10.0-514.el7
然后再次安装Guest Additions成功
$ cd /run/media/centos/VBOXADDITIONS_5.1.22_115126
$ sudo sh ./VBoxLinuxAdditions.run
