I have the guest additions installed on an OpenSuse 10.2 guest, running 1.3.6 
virtualbox.  Glxgears runs faster in the guest than the host, probably due to 
the lower resolution in the guest.  Sax2 is not very forgiving on dynamic 
resolution switching, so I leave the guest on a fixed resolution.  The mouse 
integration works, but the when enabled, the mouse is not as sharp in the 
guest.  The mouse is white with no border, so it is hard to see against white 
background.  

Other than that, the guest additions work fine.  I can play frozen bubble and 
xmoto in th guest.

NOTE: I might have older vbox additions installed, and then upgraded
to new ones. I have found no way to uninstall guest additions (not
WinAdditions and not LinAdditions)

I updated additions to 1.3.6 according to *your* documentation:

4.3.3. Updating the Linux Guest Additions
        The Guest Additions can simply be updated by going through the
installation procedure again with an updated CD-ROM image. This will
replace the drivers with updated versions. You should reboot after
updating the Guest Additions.

If this documentation is buggy, hmm... well, then I should open a
third bug on the same topic.
