How to enable multiple screens via Vagrant?

Post by birk »

I am creating an Ubuntu 16 guest via Vagrant with 3 screens which looks like this in my Vagrant file:

Code: Select all

config.vm.provider "virtualbox" do |v|
    v.customize ["modifyvm", :id, "--monitorcount", "3"]
end
VirtualBox starts with 3 screens but the 2 additional ones have to be enabled manually in my OSX host. Otherwise they stay black as they are not available for the guest OS. Any change to automate this? And is there any config option to set the screen resolutions?

Sorry but we don't support vagrant. They change too many things and use special scripts that are unknown to us making it too time consuming to diagnose.
