I know this doesn't answer your question, but I just thought I'd throw
out there the fact that virtualbox's guest additions for gnu/linux can
be installed entirely from the text console, without requiring x. Yes,
you could install them using x as well, if you wanted to go that
route. The point is that you get a choice.
