Hello,

I have a FreeBSD 10-CURRENT as guest in a virtual box running on Ubuntu
14.04.1.

The port virtualbox-ose-additions  (4.2.18) installed fine and with it
the following is working fine:

- Xorg uses 'vboxvideo' driver and resizing or fullscreen works fine
- Xorg uses 'vboxmouse' with the following section in xorg.conf:

  Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier  "Mouse0"
        Driver      "vboxmouse"
  EndSection

  the mouse moves fine and can cross the border of the VM to Ubuntu-land
  but no button click is seen; I've checked this with xev: the moves of
  the mouse pointer are fine, but no click is seen by the xev

  having in xorg.conf:

  Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier  "Mouse0"
        Driver      "mouse"
        Option      "Protocol" "auto"
        Option      "Device" "/dev/sysmouse"
        Option      "ZAxisMapping" "4 5 6 7"
  EndSection

  the mouse in the VM works fine, but the mouse pointer can not leave
  the VM and no cut&paste is possible between the VM and Ubuntu.

Any ideas? Thanks

	matthias
