Hi there,

I noticed that the port for virtualbox-ose-additions now has the same version number as my osx host.
So I am again attempting to see if I can get things running efficiently.

doing a #sudo dmesg -a 
includes the following messages
[BEGIN]
/etc/rc: WARNING: failed precmd routine for vmware_guestd
Starting vboxservice.
VBoxService 5.1.8 r111374 (verbosity: 0) freebsd.amd64 (Nov 20 2016 12:56:42) release log
[END]

I have the following entries in /etc/rc.conf
[BEGIN]
dbus_enable="YES"
#hald_enable="YES"
kdm4_enable="YES"
#avahi_daemon_enable="YES"
vboxguest_enable="YES"
vboxservice_enable="YES"
[END]

I have the following issues
I experience intermittent issues with shared clipboard between guest and host
I also experience with FreeBSD and TrueOS that the mousewheel when using firefox/chromium triggers the back and forward page command in the browser. I do not have that experience with any of the Linux (mintLinux,suse,archlinux) when running virtualbox.

Thank you in advance for any assistance hunting these issues down
Have a nice day,
Jason
