Which contradicts the other page (which seems to list the package which
contains the guest additions), so that can't be a terribly good sign, but that
page doesn't even list Linux 3.0, so my guess would be that it's out of date,
though that's not a good sign either, since it appears to be the manual. Even
without guest additions, it should be useable, just less pleasant.
I don't know. I guess that all you can do is try it. It's straightforward
enough, and if you're worried about whether it will work, you can always try
another OS which will definitely work first.
