virtualbox.org

Hi all
I have a small problem - after installation of Vbox on windows XP host all guests - Windows 7, Vista, Opensolaris, Fedora running ok and well, except Ubuntu distros - my example 9.04, screen seeting max are allowed 800x600, Ill tried differenteky but nothing work.
Has any one a good solution for this
Should I do something in Vbox configuration, Windows host or etc.?

Would be great to get an answer, for this topic.

Have you installed the Guest Additions in the guests?

No I did not, truly I do not exactly how to do this with guest - Ubuntu server

No Problem. You only have to read the FAQ and the User Manual.

Actually 800x600 is all I have on my Linux servers as well. Since there are no desktops or Xserver there is no need to actually have a bigger screen.
There may be a parameter that you can use to get it larger, but I don't remember what it is, sorry.

Ill tried to do this

on guest server sudo apt-get install dkms

the I`ve added guest additions, an sh ./VBoxLinuxAdditions-amd64.run, it said cant run script above.

So I shuold agree that if on Ubuntu server you do not need xorg, than you do not need resolution higher than 800x600.

Any way thanks for ideas ill try tomorrow the same with Ubuntu 9.04 desktop .
