Can somebody confirm what package we're supposed to install? A search in software centre for Guest Additions only returns the host package. Perhaps we should have a separate bug for something like "it's totally not obvious what you're supposed to install to get Guest Additions working (there isn't even any indication that you shouldn't be using the standard Guest Additions that comes with VBox on your host)"?

[Bug 738330] Re: Today's Natty update means no guest additions in virtualbox
I think the actual issue needs investigations. First of all I can confirm unity in my natty guest (with virtualbox-ose- guest-x11 installed) stopped working in my VirtualBox (4.0.4 on ubuntu 10.10 host) after the update to xserver 1.10 in guest. Instead compiz is still able to run in natty guest (maybe software rendering? see below) ## Issues in xorg launch ## (II) AIGLX: Trying DRI driver /usr/lib/dri/vboxvideo_dri.so (II) Next line is added to allow vboxvideo_drv.so to appear as whitelisted driver (II) The file referenced, is *NOT* loaded (II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers//ati_drv.so (II) AIGLX: vboxvideo does not export required DRI extension (II) AIGLX: Trying DRI driver /usr/lib/dri-alternates/vboxvideo_dri.so (II) AIGLX: dlopen of /usr/lib/dri-alternates/vboxvideo_dri.so failed (/usr/lib/dri-alternates/vboxvideo_dri.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory) (II) AIGLX: Trying DRI driver /usr/lib32/dri/vboxvideo_dri.so (II) AIGLX: dlopen of /usr/lib32/dri/vboxvideo_dri.so failed (/usr/lib32/dri/vboxvideo_dri.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory) (II) AIGLX: Trying DRI driver /usr/lib32/dri-alternates/vboxvideo_dri.so (II) AIGLX: dlopen of /usr/lib32/dri-alternates/vboxvideo_dri.so failed (/usr/lib32/dri-alternates/vboxvideo_dri.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory) (EE) AIGLX: reverting to software rendering (II) AIGLX: Trying DRI driver /usr/lib/dri/swrast_dri.so (II) AIGLX: Loaded and initialized swrast (II) GLX: Initialized DRISWRAST GL provider for screen 0 So, it seems vboxvideo_dri has issues ("does not export required DRI extension").

[Bug 738330] Re: Today's Natty update means no guest additions in virtualbox
@Felix - I've found a package called virtualbox-guest-additions in the software center, but it doesn't sound like that's what you mean: "This package provides an iso image which contains the guest additions for Linux, Solaris and Windows to be installed on the host system. The guest systems then can mount the iso and install the guest additions from there." so that sounds like you're supposed to install it on the host. I can't find the package virtualbox-ose-guest-x11 in the software center but it installs from the command line (is there a reason that's not in the software center?).
