1. create new VM
2. install Ubuntu 17.10 from ISO
3. set up apt proxy (irrelevant detail)
4. `sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade`
5. `sudo apt-get install dkms build-essential make gcc automake libssl-dev linux-headers-generic autoconf checkinstall intltool libtool module-assistant perl python python3`
6. `sudo reboot`
7. inserted `VBoxGuestAdditions_5.2.1-118918.iso` CD and installed (ran auto-run)
8. checked that `/etc/depmod.d/vboxvideo-upstream.conf` was present
8. `sudo reboot`
At this point, 17.10 works with 3D acceleration disabled. When I enable it, it hangs on black screen. Getting a console, the last line in `/var/log/lastlog` mentions:
