Hi,

I have the same problem and already tried installing the guest additions
within the VM. The problem seems to be the 3D-acceleration. If I
deactivate the option in my Virtualbox-settings, I can make screenshots
like before with every application I try (shutter, screencloud..). I
know this is just a workaround because obviously withour 3D you are back
to Unity-2D as Unity needs it..

If anybody has a solution to this, I'd be interested.

Best regards,
Liane
