Hey all,

I am trying to run an RHEL 5.9 guest using terminal only (I have turned off the GUI). Out of curiosity, is there some way to enable full-screen in terminal mode w/o sacrificing resolution? I know I can force full-screen mode using HOST-C, but then the text is all huge and chunky.

Thanks

VBox resolution controls rely on X, so you have to set the resolution manually in the guest.
Set the frambuffers for the resolution you need. Part of the kernel line config.
