Ooops, i've seen that i installed the guestaddions from oracle (4.0.6) and the ose-guestadditons from the ubuntu repository.
I'd remove the ose dkms module with:

    sudo dkms remove -m virtualbox-ose-guest -v 4.0.4 --all

and after this i reinstalled the VBoxLinuxGuestAdditions V4.0.6 from oracle.
After this, ubuntu starts but unity needs 30 seconds to start after login. Same like with VirtualBox 4.0.4.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to look at all reported bugs in a timely manner. There have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time you reported the bug and your problem may have been fixed with some of the updates. Compiz, in particular, is in heavy development and this bug may have been fixed in the development version of Ubuntu (12.04) if not on your current version. If you are able, it would be of great help if you could confirm if the bug still exists by testing a livecd (available at ubuntu.com). When you test it and it is still an issue, kindly upload the updated logs by running apport-collect <bug #> and any other logs that are relevant for this particular issue. If you are unable to test the development version, please let us know if you are able to reproduce this issue on Ubuntu 11.10.

Thank you for your help and patience.
