Resolution problem on linux guest

Post by billrobb »

Hi,
I'm running 64-bit trisquel mini guest on a windows 10 host.
I'm currently running virtualbox Version 5.0.30 r112061, and my linux-headers is 3.13.0-106-lowlatency.

After installing the guest additions from the CD image, the resoultion went from the 1920*1080 I regularly use down to 800*600. I tried reinstalling the guest additions and rebooting but it didn't help.
In order to correct the resolution I use a VBoxGuestAdditions5.0.16 iso file.
How can I get a normal resolution with the updated guest additions?

Thanks
Elizine

Try to install VirtualBox Guest Additions 5.0.16. Download the ISO (http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualb ... 5.0.16.iso), mount it and install them as you did the 5.0.20 GAs.
