the probleme was with some packages gcc related that i had to install or update i did this on linux mx 18.3 and it worked
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install build-essential gcc make perl dkms
i installed vbox guest additions and it's working (copy paste , drag drop , full resolution)
I was hoping that if the developers mentioned doing this on the distro or something. it took me a while to find the solution because I'm a newbie.
i tried this on antiX 17.3 and it didnt work )= /
