That may be one problem however it turns out that the virtualbox
builder needs to know the version of the Xorg server used in order to
install the correct driver .so

    # Install Xorg drivers
    ensureDir $out/lib/xorg/modules/{drivers,input}
    install -m 644 lib/VBoxGuestAdditions/vboxvideo_drv_18.so
$out/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/vboxvideo_drv.so
    install -m 644 lib/VBoxGuestAdditions/vboxmouse_drv_18.so
$out/lib/xorg/modules/input/vboxmouse_drv.so

For the current Xorg version 1.9.5 the files to install should be
vboxvideo_drv_19.so instead.

In addition the vboxmouse driver isn't added to the generated xorg.conf

I'm not sure how to programmatically solve either of these

cheers
Rohan
