<title>Manual Setup of Selected Guest Services on Linux</title>
<body>
<p>The <ph conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/product-name"/> Guest Additions contain several different drivers. If
you do not want to configure them all, use the following command to install the Guest Additions: </p>
<pre xml:space="preserve">$ sh ./VBoxLinuxAdditions.run no_setup</pre>
<p>After running this script, run the <userinput>rcvboxadd setup</userinput> command as <codeph>root</codeph> to
compile the kernel modules. </p>
<p>On some 64-bit guests, you must replace <filepath>lib</filepath> with <filepath>lib64</filepath>. On older guests
that do not run the <userinput>udev</userinput> service, you must add the <userinput>vboxadd</userinput> service
to the default runlevel to ensure that the modules are loaded. </p>
<p>To set up the time synchronization service, add the <userinput>vboxadd-service</userinput> service to the default
runlevel. To set up the X11 and OpenGL part of the Guest Additions, run the <userinput>rcvboxadd-x11
setup</userinput> command. Note that you do not need to enable additional services. </p>
<p>Use the <userinput>rcvboxadd setup</userinput> to recompile the guest kernel modules. </p>
<p>After compilation, reboot your guest to ensure that the new modules are loaded. </p>
