Why are you installing the open-vm-tools package when your running Ubuntu on VirtualBox?

This is what I get for working with 39c fever...

You are quite right. This was the wrong package to install.
However, with recent experience it should still be possible, unless they changed something.

Case can be closed I guess. Sorry for the inconvenience :)
