Hi,
building KDE4 on a machine with virtualbox guest additions used to be not 
possible. Also the KDE session used to crash right after login, if the 
additions were present.
Thanks to a hint in the upstream bugreport 
(http://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/5297) KDE4 now plays (relatively) nicely with 
the vbox guest additions.

Note the 3.1.2 additions are reported to not work with b130/b131. lewellyn 
provides his own build at 
http://www.greenviolet.net/articles/2010/01/19/vbox-additions-osol-130.gv, 
which worked for me.

Not all is rosy, kwin seems to force OpenGL and breaks if the 3D acceleration 
is not enabled in VirtualBox. 
Patches welcome :-)

Also WDYT about including the lewellyn's additions in the next release of 
Korona (b131, KDE 4.4RC2) ?


have fun

P.
