Installing VirtualBox guest additions on a Ubuntu 10.10 guest

Keywords: Virtualbox Ubuntu 10.10 X server guest additions

Adding VirtualBox guest additions to a Ubuntu 10.10 guest fails for the X server, since 10.10 includes a later version than the guest additions are expecting.

The solution:

$ sudo aptitude install virtualbox-ose-guest-x11
