Shut down the machine after installationĦ. Install ubuntu-18.04.6-desktop-amd64.iso on a new VirtualBox virtual machine.Ģ. Under Host key Combination, change the left to the right by clicking on the field, press the right. Select: Input menu > Keyboard > Keyboard Settings. There are thousands of distributions of Linux out there, but Ubuntu is. Note that I have changed the host key to 'Left Shift'. On the Mac, focus on a running 'Windows VM'. Click here and download VirtualBox for Windows hosts. My Host Machine is still usable, but the hover feature of the mouse is disabled as long as I don't kill the virtual machine. However, as soon as I enter such a command, (like Host+f for fullscreen) the VirtualBox Machine Freezes and I cant perform any task on it anymore. The impact is not documented for the VirtualBox executor. When I run a virtual machine (ubuntu-18.04.6-desktop-amd64.iso) using VirtualBox under Archlinux, everything runs fine as long as I don't enter a command involving the Host key. That change does not impact only the SSH executor, but also the VirtualBox executor (since ssh is used to connect to the VM).
