A few days ago we presented how to share between the real operating system and the one in the virtual box, being Windows. If the method was a simple one because usually everything in Windows is very easy and everything consists of mouse clicks unlike Linux, on Ubuntu Linux things are a little different and here I mean how to install the Guest Additions utility. If the virtual system was XP, Vista or Windows 7 the installation of Guest Additions as well as the settings for file sharing was a simple one as I said above, it all consists of a few clicks… nex, next, finish.
On Ubuntu Linux things are a little different, actually is as simple but when you do not know something obvious will seem difficult or complicated.
In this tutorial I chose to present the Guest Additions installation which is necessary to be able to communicate with the real system as well as to benefit from some advantages, namely to be able to resize the working window in the virtual system so after installing Guest Additions we can work with the system. virtual in full screen. And last but not least, we presented the settings that must be made in the virtualbox system (Ubuntu Linux) in order to make the folders in the real system, visible in the virtual system and how we can automate the mounting of the folder we want to share in the system. virtualbox. Why automate share folder mounting? Because this is how Ubuntu Linux works, if we share a folder between the real and the virtual system, after we restart or turn off the virtual system it will not automatically mount the folder shared by us between the 2 systems, and so for this to happen automatically every time we start or restart the system from the virtualbox, we will have to automate this process by modifying the fstab file in the / etc / fstab folder so that we no longer have to manually give the share command every time we log on to the virtual system.
NOTE: The most important when making shared between the real and the virtual system are the settings you make in the virtual system to access the files in the system for real real system being less importing because we have nothing to set than done or file specified that we want to share some files in virtualbox. So if the real system is Windows XP, Vista or 7, we will do the settings in virtual boxing system will be the same if the virtual system is Ubuntu Linux.
That being said I will let you watch the video tutorial

Please tell me and me
Excuse me for posting the same comment again but I forgot to specify that if you use Camtasia Studio but where in?
Congratulations Adrian, I see that you start to figure way to terminal especially of graphics windows that fit how to do something, I'm glad something good starts Monday and free to use as OS, an enjoyable day for all
Adrian sorry I contradict you about that order, well in fact you didn't make the wrong order first if because it was written / home / ady / Desktop / Guest the problem the first time was different, namely those connotations from the beginning and the end, that is, you had ' /home…./Guest 'what is not good I mean it should not be' so that was the only thing that escaped you, and not that the user was not put because it was… I hope you understood what I mean .
have no contact those connotations would have had to go but did not work because
1 I put space between "," and guid = 1000
2 starvation / ady
It's not the first time I replace the path (location) with the file by drag and drop in the terminal… I've done this in several operations, I didn't delete those "'" connotations and yet the command worked… so the reason was not those connotations…
I have a problem with typing su root password prompted me introduce the one that I installed Linux and not working. How do I recover or create a root password?

Adi hello! I have a question: GuestAdditions be installed on the actual operating system??-and by the way I found this tutorial very helpful!! success as many totoriale!! !!
Guest dition should not be installed on your PC but on the virtual real
Thanks a lot!
very good tutorials i like !!!!!!! I HAVE A REQUEST AND I EXPLAIN HOW I GET RID OF SECURITY TOOL… ii so annoying ladies… thanks in advance
adrian for: dude you need to enlighten them on others (however you're omniscient) did not jump at every scandal noticed data.am foreign language that you kind of know what that romana.nu too hyphen generally WORD GRAMMAR STRAIN.RESPECT PT's your other two
Hello!
Firstly congratulations on tutorials.
Secondly, I would like to ask those who are older in linux, that fail in any way: I installed windows 7 for wife and programming, but in Windows using Wubi, I installed ubuntu 9.10. My HDD has 2 partitions (C and D). I installed Ubuntu on C, near the windows. How can I make my mount automatically every time you get on ubuntu, partition D? I've added in playlists and music is annoying every time I forget to mount the partition manually and want to listen to music.
Then there's that authentication thing, kind of a UAC in Windows. How can I disable it? It's annoying to be asked for my password every time… On top of that I could easily do this thing, but from here I think I need a command, because I didn't find any interface for something like that.
Thank you in advance.
Hello Cornel.Sper be helpful to you this:

Hello!
On my Acer gives ultimatum to save files and reinstall tomorrow searched 7.Am Wind properties and appears activat.Ce should I do?
is very good! this tutorial.
Hello everyone! I'm using an HP desktop with an intel64 (x64) processor and I'm running Windows 7 X64! I've installed a bunch of x32, Linux and Windows systems in VirtualBox, it works great, but when it comes to x64 systems I'm told that a processor suitable for that architecture is not detected (more precisely, Linux tells me that an i686 processor has been detected, which, as far as I know, is characteristic of x32 processors)! Do you know where the "bug" is?
where the boys and I get maps for tom tom gps go730??
I'm interested in whether it's the same in Ubuntu (via wubi I have now) with XP in VirtualBox… but then the problem is how to mount NTFS partitions on startup (I think). I say this because I was thinking that maybe my Canon virtual printer will work… and I also thought that I will install virtual games (XP) on real (Ubuntu).
And so this is the reason I have not been definitively Linux although I much as I love ...
And still waiting for more tutorials linux, thanks in advance.
If the real you through Wubi Ubuntu and XP virtual you do that HERE (Click on the word here to watch tutorial)
Thanks, I did.
I don't have a laptop, I have a French PC and it has an acer aspire e500 motherboard and it doesn't recognize my hdd when I put windows and when I put windows vista it works like a wheel but I want to put windows 7 and I don't know where to get the drivers to integrate them in windows 7 where I get them my motherboard is "acer aspire e500" maybe you can leave me a site where to get them thanks and very good tutorial
cool tutorial
I have fedora 12 in the virtual box and I tried to install the guest too, but that window appears telling me to press run in term… press and nothing happens I tried many times and I don't succeed, not even the second method does not work (connotations do not work). Can anyone help me please?
I do not know if I am in the best position to answer, but I hurt your problem and I will incerca.Eu so I installed an older version of VirtualBox and like you and I did not uninstalled mers.Am it and I installed the latest version, and I managed 3.1.4 but terminal, with the file SH mers.Deci I did not try to install VirtualBox version and see what happens, I hope to succeed.
Open terminal
write su and you enter
will ask password (Reaching password you become root)
Now give this command: yum install kernel-devel kernel-headers gcc
waiting to install what to install
close the terminal and reopen it
login as root again by typing su and giving enter
Enter the password again and you put
then write: cd / media / VBOXADDITIONS_3.1.4_57640 and you enter
now write: . / VBoxLinuxAdditions-x86.run (And put the point before that /)
wait for it to install and that's it, restart and voila…
I typed su I tried to stick my password appears but I can not simply write rights where it says Password:! What's the problem?
You never even looked at the video tutorial above, I specifically told you not password is displayed while a key terminal for security reasons. simply typing a careful and you enter. Most forgotten once the tutorial. If you want to understand forgotten the way and not run. I will not repeat the 13 times what we have shown in a video tutorial just so you are comfortable and you never feel like you look at all the tutorial!
Thanks, sorry but I'm not much of Linuxu the truth is that I looked only at half the tutorial and you even look at everything but not great and I insisted that, now I get it. Thank you.
I have another problem after watching the tutorial and I followed steps to share, when inserting the sudo mount -t ..etc command it tells me that mount: unknown filesystem type 'vboxsf' (this also in fedora 12). you can help me again you can be grateful!
which is the best email address?
or what do you think is better to use a yahoo email address? or gmail email address?
I want to specify that I am a beginner and I just did a yahoo email address and an id mesenger, but I talked to several people and many have told me it is much better an email address at gmail than one at yahoo
The email address you use Gmail or Yahoo? or there are others?
There are others, a lot of other domains for mail such as AOL, Hotmail from Microsoft but the most common remain yahoo and gmail from google. You can have mail made to as many domains as you want, no one will stop you, I have a mail account on almost all domains, even on a Russian domain… mail.ru You are free to make mail where you want… and as many as you want, even 2 emails on the same domain, for example on yahoo I have about 4 email accounts, each one I use for something and for something… if you are a simple user… it's enough for 1 or 2 domains.

I need to set the settings in VMware or VirtualBox Internet
I did have tried all the variations I can connect on Windows XP and connect zadar.Nu others but I could not.
I have a question: can enter the BIOS in the virtual system?
Virtual boxing has no BIOS settings, you expect too much from a free, do not you think?
If you want to learn something about my colleague Cristi bios did a tutorial on this topic. Write up in the 'Search videotutorial.ro ... "Right: some brief explanations about the bios, you enter and you will find the tutorial.
Thank you very much for the information and I want to tell you 3 things:
1 2 I saw the tutorials on bios
2 12 years I've been watching your tutorials fondly for being the hottest
3 I wanted to know this in order to study the BIOS without it stri mine.
Thank you again
Sorry wardrobe as I read comments on VMWare but there is a trial version?
If so please guide me and not find me anywhere
Normally there, but to get 30 days trial version you will need to make an account on vmware.
Question qualification: You have not heard until now the Pirate Bay or Isohunt?
Yeah I heard but I found that I was interested only with viruses but I keep looking
For example, the pirate bay, next to every stream is likely to meet one of the following symbols:
- pink skull - means that the uploader that put that torrent has the status of "trusted"
- green skull - means that the uploader has the status of VIP.
If you meet those symbols, get a torrent chances are quite small problems. It's also good to look and the comments of those who have downloaded. There is a method 100% sure, but this is
Thanks for the info I think I found what I was interested in the pirate bay
Why copy-paste? Why not "sh ./V"?
The "cd / media / cdrom" is also valid .. the method with, will automatically fill in the name of the respective file or folder.
ex: “cd / me” results in “cd / media /” or “cd / me / c /” results in “cd / media / cdrom0 /”
Aaa .. and you can share much easier using "opera 10.10" or "opera 10.50", set OperaUnite then WebServer, choose a folder you want to put in "share", it will create an address like username.operaunitecom ", And you can even enter from work and access your files at home without any problem (if you leave the computer on, of course), this method is very effective.
Why copy-paste? Why not “sh ./V[TAB]”?
The "cd / media / cdrom" is also valid .. the [TAB] method will automatically fill in the name of the respective file or folder.
ex: “cd / me [TAB]” results in “cd / media /” or “cd / me [TAB] / c [TAB] /” results in “cd / media / cdrom0 /”
Aaa .. and you can share much easier using "opera 10.10" or "opera 10.50", set OperaUnite then WebServer, choose a folder you want to put in "share", it will create an address like username.operaunite .com ”, and you can even enter from work and access your files at home without any problem (if you leave the computer on, of course), this method is very effective.
The problem was the quotes, not / home / Desktop! :))
With drag'n'drop you solve nothing but wasted time wiping those quotes! And once again I tell you, use "TAB" so that you don't have to write the whole folder name, for example "cd / h" TAB "/ a" TAB "/ D" TAB "/ G" TAB "and you saved a lot of time.
And I did not take it the wrong way, but you must first learn Linux better then to teach others .. All the best!
Did not take this the wrong way still, and know how to accept criticism. I know of Linux means freedom right? freedom mean anything? So I want but if I drag and drop everything right, and you want the TAB if you have every right, as I do what I want
As for learning Linux better… I don't know how well you know it but I haven't seen anywhere a tutorial made by you. So…. better more inexperienced and reaching out to others than an expert who says nothing to anyone. I am the village of professionals who fight with their fists in their chests but do not teach anything to others. I have not seen any "specialist" on ubuntu.ro, no programmer, and very skilled in Linux to offer what we offer. Linux means something else that does not go on the premise "learn for yourself"
Maybe you didn't search 🙂 Enter my site (replace the email "@" with ".") And you will be convinced that I don't keep everything to myself.
And about what I said above, maybe you didn't really understand what I really meant. A "good" tutorial should be short and to the point. (Otherwise, there is a good chance that users will be misled).
All the best!
How do I install games on Linux Ubuntu
I followed the tutorial but can not install additional guest on linux
starts to install but stops, something related to the kernel… ..
I would be grateful if someone would help me
thank you very much
Adrian can you help me? Can not install Guest Additions on Linux kiwi gives me an error, do not know to display to view, but I can say something about the error: When you press the Install Guest Additions appears Unable to mount the CD / DVD image C: on the linux machine.
Virtual machine starts then right click on that icon with the CD on the virtual box window (bottom right) and Aegiali Unmount CD, then give up the Device and Install Guest Additions
did not work either so i do not know why, Adrian, not allowing me to unmount cd, this is F. I think I'm wrong somewhere and I can not figure out where.
Hello,
Computer's operating system and the virtual Windows 7 Virtual Box is XP. Question. Virtual XP system can automatically use the Windows programs 7? Or must be installed in Virtual Box again as in the actual operating system. I mean to ask again, Adobe Reader, Flash Player, KMPlayer, Word, Nero, drivers for video card and audio drivers suits internet and other useful programs.
Thank you.
Pretty please not to post comment 7 same time, bring your mind where you posted, there was your response to your comment. You commented THIS tutorial and also where you got and Answer
Hi Adrian! Like in the inaltime.Sanatate and success are always on.
Thank you nice and stop waiting!
Thanks for the tutorial. It and any tutorial explaining how to use some sort of Windows' System Restore in Ubuntu for example. Thank you
ms much adrian! it went perfectly… you are very explicit… you do an excellent job!
I have a request ... I have a video card nvidia gt 9400 silent and virtual box on ubuntu does not recognize my video driver and can not use visual effects ...
What could I do? ms more!
Close virtual operating system's settings and enter the Display and check the box Enable Acceleration 3D then restarts the virtual operating system. If you install Guest Additions as shown in the tutorial, in virtual operating system should now have visual effects. Let me know if it is resolved ...
still not working .... I installed the nvidia synaptic everything .... and you go to nvidia x server setings me a message: "You do not Appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server. "... But treba nuj how to do this ..... what to do?
You did very wrong! The operating system does not need any drivers installed Guest Addition and both than that, nothing other something about drivers through synaptic or something where. Reinstall virtual system again, after installation go and start the Update Manager click on Check and install updates found then close the virtual system. You go and tick enable 3D Acceleration I said above, then start the virtual system, install Guest Additions as shown in the tutorial above, then, restart your PC and you should go graphic effects.
I followed your instructions and now it works perfectly… thank you very much!
with pleasure and stop waiting and other time! I hope you fall in love with him just as happened to me and eventually pass on Linux Using his final as a principal in the real PC

VrtualBox version is 3.1.4: https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Download_Old_Builds_3_1
The links lead to sites that VirtalBox official Ubuntu where you can download older versions of these programs.
Thank you very much Sir Alex, good luck with videoblog (Y)
I'm not sir. The merits of these tutorials you belong totally to Christ and Adrian + Baiti few others who have done many a tutorial. Anyway I'm glad I could help you and you wait.
