I just updated to VirtualBox 5.0.18 and updated the guest additions on my Ubuntu 12.04 guest. After logging out it shrinks down to a small 1024x768 window. When I log back in, I'm forced to the 2D desktop. I can resize the window, but I can't get it to use the 3D desktop anymore. Going back to 5.0.16 guest additions works fine.

It looks like the same error as myself.
Today I upgraded to the 5.0.18 (linux ubuntu mint 13 Maya) and using a Debian Wheezy x86-32bit with a kernel 3.12 custom compiled. When installing the VirtualBox Additions in the Debian Guest (running as always the sudo ./VBoxLinuxAdditions.run) it warnings with some missing headers (but they are present) and after a reboot the Mouse Integration and Xorg dynamic resolution change does not work anymore.
Reverting to the 5.0.16 and re-installing the correct 5.0.16 VBoxAdditions, throwing the same warning about the kernel headers, but at the end of the installation, after a reboot everything is working good...

Please fix.

I also see a regression in 5.0.18 with Ubuntu 14.04.

The following crash dump is found in dmesg:

It still happens with 5.0.20.

I would be interested to know if anything has changed with the latest 5.0 Additions test build<1>.

My virtual machine with Ubuntu 12.04, which had problem with graphics since 5.0.18, now boots correctly with official 5.0.22. So maybe it is fixed for you too.
