    Ive done two installs;

    One laptop: i updated only kernel headers, i can log off properly (no blank black screen and i cant do anything)

    One computer: updated all updates, inc kernel headers, cant log off properly. i get a black screen, no login line.

    Why is the first release of this so buggy & doesn't include sources for kernel updates?

    Also check to make sure your source file is correct:

    I've run across this same issue, however I've followed all the steps listed in this thread, and still receive the same error. I've visted the faq page and added all the deb and deb-src listings, ran the apt-get update, but still can't get guest additions to load correctly.

    Any other ideas?
