Re: Size of Window
Install the guest additions, inside the guest. Then you can either drag the window to a better custom size or, better IMHO, uses whatever tool Oracle Enterprise Linux provides for changing display "resolution" to a better standard size.
The problem with custom display sizes is that many applications will store different layout profiles (location and sizes of gadget windows etc) for different display resolutions, so every time you slightly tweak the window size you are selecting a new layout profile. Better IMHO to choose a standard size and stick with it.

See chapter 4 of the user manual.
IMHO is an acronym, short for "In My Humble Opinion". I resisted using another acronym on you - RTFM (look it up).
