VirtualBox Ubuntu 16.04 (and 17.04) guest with bad resolution -
i have installed following iso in virtualbox guest on windows 10 host:
ubuntu-16.04.3-desktop-amd64.iso edit: looks same happens 17.04.
the host is:
microsoft windows [version 10.0.15063] vbox version:
after following normal ubuntu install procedure decided install guest additions, via:
devices -> insert guest cd... it opened terminal window, installation proceed no-errors , said "press enter close".
after restarting guest os, see , it's possible use keyboard mouse clicks broken!: 
and solution uninstall guest additions via:
open terminal ctrl + alt + t go mounted additions disk in /media sudo ./vboxlinuxaddtions.run uninstall does know how fix that? x11 related?
note: i've tried installing guest additions via:
sudo apt-get install ...-dkms but returned errors in lines of "this module old".
note: i've tried going system -> additional drivers , enabling vbox driver, did not affect resolution problem.
disabling 3d hardware acceleration fixed small screen problem.
power down vm , go settings -> display , uncheck "enable 3d acceleration"
i able run glmark2 on ubuntu guest , seems have decent performance (without swap internal support, is).
