Notice:

To avoid crashes when upgrading Guest Additions from version 6.x to 7.x on Windows guests, uninstall the old Guest Additions first, then reboot, and then install the new ones. It's recommended to do all these operations in Safe Mode. See this upstream bug ticket for more details.

As of 7.x, VirtualBox requires Vulkan. I'm still in the process of troubleshooting my particular situation (after installing Vulkan deps, I no longer get a black screen and instead make it to where the guest tools attempts to resize the guest screen, at which point the entire VirtualBoxVM process dumps core), but the relevant part for this page is that we need to add vulkan libraries as (optional?) dependencies to the package.

3D acceleration appears to be broken in 7.0.2-1 (with virtualbox-ext-oracle-7.0.2-1). Booting an Ubuntu 22.04 guest with 3D acceleration disabled works fine, but with it enabled, guest hangs at a black screen during boot. Downgrading everything to 6.1.38-1 works perfectly. Looking at the logs, VirtualBox appears to be failing to find a Direct3D lib, of all things:

Google is failing me on figuring out what dependency could provide this library.

Thanks, @dbermont – worked like a charm in Safe mode (F5 during startup), using virtualbox-guest-iso made available through Tools-Media-Optical.

Actually VirtualBox 7.0.0 is out since October 10, 2022... https://www.virtualbox.org/

If you want to try 6.1.40, all you need to do is update the PKGBUILD with pkgver=6.1.40 and _build=154048. Rest is the same. Then update checksums and it will build fine.

Also, we may need to rename this package virtualbox-bin-6 for the remainder of the support period (likely 9 mo. or so). Oracle on the virtualbox users-list recommends remaining with the 6.1 branch for production installs until the bugs with the new 7.0 branch have been identified and fixed.

@drankinatty Package updated.

6.1.38 is out with support for Linux 6.0 kernel. (for once Oracle is ahead of the kernel)
