I am thinking that this is host side code issue. I have tried with
several different guest addition versions going back about two months
and it does not change the effect. Windows guests don't seem to be
effected only Linux (X11)
Host is a derivative of Debian with all kinds of personal code and using
nVidia 331 drivers. That said it should be the same on an Ubuntu 14.04
or Mint 17 host. 3D enabled. Disabling 3D in the settings which reverts
to software rendering and the resize works as it should, but that is not
acceptable as you well know. Processor goes nuts!

Today Mint-17 started flaking out. Resize does not actually go black,
but it does corrupt the screen. The bottom bar moves up about 1/5 of
the way from the bottom. Mouse integration is still active and if you
can determine where to put it you can click to shut the guest down.
But when it starts again the previous size (one before you resize) is
shown again link it did not save the pointers in the vbox file.

Good day Michael,
Yes it happens when I try to click-drag the window. It will go black
and can not recover (Unity or cinnamon). I have to cold boot to get
back to a screen. Also the guest is really sluggish (even my typing
outruns the terminal and I can't type more than 80 wpm), like it was
running in software rendering but it states that chromium and humper
are in fact being used.
I had not had a need to run the logs in a long time so I guest the
sed that dkms entered could have been there for some time but it was
the first time I had seen it. I also looked over the xorg log and
did not find anything that stood out as an warning/error. It all
looks good but just does not work properly at all.

Guest additions build and do not show install error in terminal but
the
video does not work properly at all. Resize causes a black screen and
can not be forced to return. I noticed something in the install log
that I can't seem to correct.
vboxvideo.ko:

Any suggestions?
Regarding the sed issue, see here:

I don't think that is related to your problem though. Do I
understand correctly that everything works find until you first
resize the guest window? For the record I am working on that code
just now.
Regards,
Michael
