Bug Description

A second ago hit this bug.

After starting VirtualBox'ed Windows 7 and running VirtualBox Guest Addons setup, my mouse cursor in the moment of specific ( do not focused on installers log, but I guess it was Input / Plug and Play drivers ) driver installation vanquished from all desktop - including Linux, too. Mouse functionality returned only after VirtualBox Reset from Main Menu ...

To reproduce this bug, you can:
1. Run VirtualBox, Install Windows 7;
2. Run "Guest Additions" from VirtualBox main menu;
3. Wait until, probably, input or plug and play drivers are installed by Setup.

This bug was not occurring on my PC in Karmic.

OS: Lucid Lynx Final
VBOX: 3.1.6 / Windows 7 Build 7600 64bit
Type: i386 / 32bit
