Hi Wojtek,
Thanks for replying.
Yes, I figured that was the issue:
yum update
yum install dkms
yum groupinstall "Development Tools"
yum install kernel-devel
I then mounted the VB Guest Additions iso, ran VB's Linux script (as
root) and now upon reboot clipboard integrates very nicely.
The mouse integration is simple - does not even need VB GA - just change
the mouse type in VB settings from PS/2 to USB tablet.
Now everything works very nicely indeed.

Manish Jain
