Description
Host: Windows 10 - 64bit (10586.218) Guest: Ubuntu 16.04 - 64bit Virtualbox: 5.0.18 with 5.0.18_106667 Additions
Hello,
my normal settings for User Accounts in Ubuntu are: I use a password and automatic Login (Screenshot 1.jpg) For test reasons i deleted my password and switched automatic login off (Screenshot 2.jpg)
After a Ubuntu restart with these settings the Xorg Server didn't come up any more. After I uninstalled the Guest Additions from the terminal the Xorg Server started again.
I reproduced the behaviour a few times. With no password and automatic login off and the guest additions installed, I can not start Ubuntu.

Reproduced something similar - the latest Additions test build<1> should fix it, though I would appreciate confirmation.

Thank you for confirming.
