Are you using the 5.2.23 test version of VirtualBox? 5.2.22 won't work,
as mentioned in the release notes at
https://wiki.centos.org/Manuals/ReleaseNotes/CentOS7.1810
"If you use VirtualBox to run CentOS 7.6.1810 as a guest with a GUI, you
need version 5.2.23 to build graphics drivers. See VBox ticket 18093
<https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/18093>. Also, the mouse may not work
properly as reported in this VBox forum thread
<https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=90267>."
