This is very weird. I loved VB until I started to upgrade (all upgrades were done as suggested by VB; I did not on my own). I have Ubuntu guest and Mac OS X host. I upgraded once which destroyed Guest Additions (can't even reinstall; weird inability to insert disc - have tried dozens of suggested solutions on many posts to no avail). I have upgraded one more time and now graphics and screen size are so awkward the set up is basically unusable. What to do? Uninstall and reinstall (after saving VDI)? Afraid to do anything more since this is very disappointing and seems like not worth further effort. ANY ideas appreciated. Thank you!
Admin has asked for more info. Version is 4.3.10 (Virtualbox), it is 32 bit with 2048MB RAM and 81GB memory. I cannot see Ubuntu version in Details area of Settings because it runs off the size of the screen despite trying to change video settings. Please let me know if more info is needed. Thank you!
