@ Michael: oddly enough VB does work 3D with GNOME3 ($ sudo apt-get
install gnome); just doesn't work with Unity. I've also reviewed & tried
the suggestions in:
https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/9799
and
https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=45549&p=205449#p205408

https://www.virtualbox.org/download/testcase/VBoxGuestAdditions-r74568.iso
and virtualbox-ose-guest-utils

Looks to be the same as this issue with VB ose:
