How do I install this on a guest system?
I tried to install it from Devices -> Install Guest Additions... nothing happened.
With VMware Server, it was easy and I was able to move the mouse easily between host and guest.
With VirtualBox, the mouse is trapped and the VM would reboot everytime I hit CTRL+R keys (Is it the correct way to release the mouse from guest machine?).
I have both VirtualBox and VMware Server 1.0.2 on Debian Etch. The VirtualBox feels a little slower than the VMware Server when I tried out Windows XP SP2 with RAM set to 512MB (I have only 1GB total on this machine).

I never had the pleasure of trying out Win4Linux.
