guest additions does not work on centos 8 stream

[milesnick]

the new kernel headers does not have drm/ttm/ttm_memory.h so the modules cannot build

This issue was fixed in VirtualBox 6.1.34. Thank you for reporting. Closing.

To obtain the most recent kernel header package, you need usually run yum update on your machine. Install VirtualBox Guest Additions on the guest OS to resolve this issue and make VirtualBox full screen.
