(In reply to comment #0) Hi > Shared folders do not appear accessible to windows guests with vbox 1.6.4. Tested with virtualbox-bin-1.6.4, shared folders are working fine here, sounds like a problem with your guest or your VM setup, be sure to update your guest additions after every upgrade, not an ebuild issue. > Side note there is no icon after install. Just checked again, an icon is present and installed x-drum@Thunder ~ $ qlist virtualbox-bin | grep png /usr/share/pixmaps/virtualbox.png
Strange, i reinstalled the guest additions and now it works.... Strange.
