After a lot of tests I have some progress on this issue:
If HAL is started, the mouse clicks are working in the guest system. Our
Wiki (https://wiki.freebsd.org/VirtualBox/) gives this as an option for
HAL users (which I was not until now) and gives an example for some file
to be placed into /usr/local/etc/hal/fdi/policy/90-vboxguest.fdi;
I did this and re-checked that it even works without this file,
launching HAL is already enough.
What still is not working is cut&paste between the VM and the host.
When Xorg+KDE4 comes up there are some VBoxClient-processes visible, one is
/usr/local/bin/VBoxClient --clipboard
Does this need some configuration? There is no man page for it :-(
Thanks
matthias
