I am running Android x86 on VirtualBox, and I want the pointer integration enabled, which needs VirtualBox Guest Additions to be installed on the guest OS.

I have searched a lot, but what I have found is that one has to compile Guest Additions with Android-x86 kernel headers. Can anyone please share how to do this?

Thanks in advance.

Just disable "mouse integration" in Host Machine tab.
