This problem (still or again) occurs with ubu 18.04 (host), 18.10 (guest) and
virtualbox 5.2.18.
After installing the guest additions at the host, the guest system will boot,
but x server will crash and state
"Warning, couldn't open module vboxvideo".
Modprobe vboxvideo will load the module,
I solved the issue by downgrading virtualbox-guest-x11 and virtualbox-
guest-utils downto 5.0.18-dfsg-2build1

That file doesn't exist anymore since now we have a kernel module and the *GL
stuff for this 3d.
apt-get install virtualbox-guest-dkms should bring that vboxvideo for you

I can run a VM with only 2D perfectly fine (using X). Do you use Wayland
or X? Can you uncomment 'WaylandEnable = false' in /etc/gdm3/custom.conf
and check if it works for you.

Sorry, I thought you run Ubuntu 18.04, but it's Ubuntu 16.04. Please
ignore my comment.
