Steve thanks to your advice!
>From VirtualBox "Devices / Install Guest Additions " menu I have managed to
mount Guest Additions iso in Debian guest.
Yet, it did not autorun, and even on root account I could not start any
shell script from this volume.
After that I just copied all files from mounted Guest Additions to tmp,
changed script permission and finally run VBoxLinuxAddition.run script.
This script reported failure of some of its tasks, yet luckily for me
installed display drivers in Debian 6.0.3 guest successfully! Hurray!
Now I run Debian guest on Mac OsX Snow Leopard both in Auto-resize and
Fullscreen mode!

I am really happy now! - I can start seriously working with Pyjamas and do
Web client UI in Python! No more Java! I am immensely tired of Java's
boilerplate code, uh...
Thanks, again for your help!
