[server] What are the mouse/keyboard sequences for cut-and-paste on Ubuntu VirtualBox?

I have a non-graphical Ubuntu installed inside VirtualBox under Windows.

I've installed VBoxGuestAdditions (and enabled bidirectional Drag'n'Drop - for the hell of it).


However, none of the following will paste to the guest OS:


  • Shift+Ins
  • Ctrl+v
  • Ctrl+Shift+v
  • Pressing right-click and left-click simultaneously (this emulates a middle-click on my laptop's two keys touch-pad).



What are the sequences for mouse/keyboard cut-and-paste in non-graphical Ubuntu under VirtualBox?



Environment:

  • VirtualBox: 4.3.12 r93733
  • VBoxGuest: 4.3.12
  • Guest OS: Linux ubuntu 3.13.0-32-generic #57~precise1-Ubuntu SMP x86_64
  • Host OS: Windows 7
