Bug Description
Hi,
Out of the box, Ubuntu images have support for the vmware video driver; I wish we would have support for virtualbox mouse and video output as well.
I think this involves splitting the Xorg drivers out into their own packages and pulling them in xserver-
Bye

This would require splitting the guest additions into 5 packages: ose-guest- utils - shared folders, time syncing [depends on virtualbox- ose-guest- source] ose-guest- x11 - shared clipboard, seamless mode, auto-resize [depends on virtualbox- ose-guest- source] ose-guest- source - kernel module (dkms) xorg-video- virtualbox- ose / xserver- xorg-video- vbox - X.Org video driver xorg-input- virtualbox- ose / xserver- xorg-input- vbox - X.Org mouse driver

Also virtualbox-ose would have to be moved to main.
Should I work on implementing this change or are there objections/required changes?
