Nedd to put another text-addition to state it more precise: There is actually no need to to install guest-additions from within Ubuntu via KpackageKit (Synaptic Package Managment), if it is run as guest..

The guest-addition must be installed via vboxmanage as it lies within the host-system -- 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
