After upgrading to 12.10 and installing VirtualBox guest additions, they cannot be enabled in the Additional Drivers pane.



If I click the only available option, "Continue using a manually installed driver, the Apply changes button will stay grayed out, and the current selection seems to be Do
not use the device
(though it's grayed out.)



Any idea about this?

Upgrading virtual box will solve this issue.



Download virtual box 4.2 from here. Uninstall and reinstall the guest additions.



Here is the changelog of 4.2.2 related to Linux





  • Linux hosts / guests: Linux 3.7-rc1 fixes

  • Linux Additions: support X.Org Server 1.13

  • Linux Additions: fixed a hang when the X server was restarted with old guest kernels

  • Linux Additions: fixed a VBoxService crash during CPU hot remove
