Since you run a Windows host you may wish to follow this discussion: http://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=40922&start=45#p184602 You may find out there, that GA 4.0.4-71416 was ment to be used for windows hosts. Then this was ported to 4.0.6 This is history now, hence, a newer Version 4.08 is available since 2001-04-16 Besides - you got stuck with a wrong inclusion (I got messed up with this thinking too, a while ago.) There is actually no need to to install guest-additions from within Ubuntu, if it is run as guest.. The Guest system gets established from the Host-System (this is in your case Windows) supplied with the package you downloaded from VirtualBox.org Besides, the Guestadditions have to match the main package, if you try anything else you may ruin your .vdi This bug can be marked as "wont fix". Best regards P.S.: VirtualBox supplies one of the best documentions I've seen. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/773038 Title: X server error after installation of guest additions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
