Description
After switching graphics controller from VBoxVGA to VBoxSVGA, it works but laggy. I found that reinstalling Guest Additions makes it smooth again. Maybe some modules are missing when Guest Additions are installed previously. It would be better to be notified that fact or even not to need to reinstall Guest Additions.

There's no need to reinstall the GAs in order to switch vGPU for your guest. You can switch vGPUs at will. Maybe you had a one-off instance? Is this reproducible?
