Installed CentOS 7 in VB 4.3.18, OSX 10.10 host. Guest additions installed and work except, 3D has to be disabled otherwise there are quite a few problems with Gnome 3.

I have VirtualBox 4.3.22 on windows 8.1 64 bit Host and CentOS 7 x86_64 on guest But Guest Module won't compile. I've tried to download 4.3.22 Guest Additions with no avail. So Currently Guest Additions Main Module won't compile with Stock CentOS 7 x86_64.

make sure the kernel and the headers match. also make sure you install the required packages.

I think I installed CentOS three times and the GAs always worked.
