Hi. I'm trying to test Ubuntu 11.04 Natty (guest) on Linux Mint (host). As many of you know, Ubuntu will use Unity as its next desktop environment. When I start my VM with Natty as guest, everything works fine but Unity. Unity is not loaded, because it needs 3d acceleration and Guest Additions. I've activated 3d acceleration, but I can't install the full Guest Additions, because there's a problem with x window system. I'm attaching an image with the output of the Guest Additions installation. I don't know whether it is because of this x issue, but I still can't get Ubuntu working with Unity. Thanks in advance, bye.

Full support for Ubuntu 11.04 is pending and should be included in the next maintenance release.

Thank you Perryg. I only want to add that it seems to work fine on the machines of the guys who put their tutorials on "how to test ubuntu with unity on vbox"

It works for me too, but the released version 4.0.4 supported it until the Ubuntu guys changed something.
You could build against the SVN and get it to work, but that is not for everyone.
