Resolution stuck at 1024x768 on Kubuntu

Post by Gibberish5387 »

I have a problem on my new Kubuntu 13.04 (64 bit) guest OS.
When I go to the resolution options to change it from 1024x768 to something else, it says that 1024x768 is the maximum resolution. I don't want those black borders around my screen(I have a 1680x1050 monitor), I want my OS to take up all the space it can.
My host OS is 64 bit Win7. Anyone know how to fix this?

Did you install the guest additions (in the guest)?
