Once you mount the Additions image (you will see that a s a CDROM 
mounted) go to the command line, chage to the CDROM directory, and you 
will find VBoxLinuxAdditions-x86.run (or the amd64 flavor if your system 
is a 64 bit). then:

sudo ./VBoxLinuxAdditions-x86.run

and after the script finishes and you restart the virtual machine, it 
should be good to go.
