VirtualBox Ubuntu Screen Problem
VirtualBox is one of the rising product that gain much popularity in community. The size is much smaller than VMWare and it is easy to setup. I get my hand on VirtualBox and install Ubuntu 7.10 as guest OS.
All went fine, no hiccups and smooth. My max screen size is 1024x768, but after I install Ubuntu 7.10 on VirtualBox, the screen size max is only 800x600. Went to the forum and found this solutions.
At the terminal type this
sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
Select Vboxvideo and select your desire resolution. and restarting X by pressing
Ctrl + Alt + Backspace
Now, you have the desired resolutions working. But you will notice that your mouse now invisible. No problem. Head to your xorg.conf , change the mouse section to vboxmouse, and restart your X.
Hope that helps for newbie like me that want to explore the world of free and open source, without the hassle of dual boot.
