Summary

To run Xorg, the setting VBoxSVGA must be enabled to not get an error when trying to run Xorg. Other settings cause the X server fail with a message that the vmware driver is missing. This is because they selected the wrong driver. Add a section about this to the beginning of the explanation before installing the virtualbox guest-additions.
