Probably it would be even better to remove the packages virtualbox-guest-additions and virtualbox-guest-modules completely as Arch Linux is fully supported by the installation script of the iso installed by virtualbox-additions. And the guest additions installed by this script are working perfectly out of the box on Arch Linux guests. Heiko
