Distorted login screen after installing GuestAdditions.

Post by samguan »

Ok, I was trying to get fullscreen to work properly so I decided to install GuestAdditions. However, after I installed the GuestAdditions, I could not see the login screen anymore, it is distorted. Somebody told me to try host+F1-F12 keys and I could get the login screen to show properly only after I press Host+F7.

I was just wondering if there is a permanent fix for this or not because I don't like the idea of hitting Host+F7 everytime to get the login screen.
