That command showed that there was no dkms pkg installed. So I installed it. Then fixed the problem that Yusaku O pointed out: Yusaku wrote: ,---- | Did you upgrade X Server? | | It seems that the X.Org Server version 1.*.99 installed on your jessie. | | So I think, maybe you should re-execute VBoxLinuxAdditions.run script | after upgrade "xserver-xorg-core" package to latest version. | | You can check your X Server's version. | | $ Xorg -version `---- Upgraded the server as suggested. Then one more part of the puzzle... This may have been on a thread in a different group but somewhere in my queries someone recommended me to install the newest (as yet unreleased guest additions 4.3.15) which I also did. Put it all together and away we go.... now my resolution increased as I expand the guest window... all the way up to my monitors 1900 x 1280. Very nice.
