fullscreen issue

Post by slanbarn »

Hello!

I have until recently been able to use the fullscreen functionallity properly, that is the resolution changes to 1440x900 when I go to fullscreen.
No suddenly fullscreen is not fullscreen, it is 1024x768 with black borders around :( Any ideas how this happend? :)

An other "issue" is that sometimes when I start the VM the resolution is fixed at 800x600 and cannot be changed, but sometimes it can be changed to 1024x768 and sometimes it is 1024x768 to begin with :D Not a biggie, just irritating to sometimes have to restart the VM to change resolution.
