Hello,
this is my first post on this forum because I'm very new to Linux & Ubuntu.
I already apologize for my Linux understanding but I'm confident I'll improve.
I run Ubuntu 12.10 and installed virtualbox 4.1.18 (failed to install 4.2...).
I installed Windows 7 in a VM and I'd like to use it full screen, i.e. 1920x1200 and/or 2560x1440.
I read so many different things on the net but none worked (yet).
I tried
. I get no error if the vm is running and an error if it's not running. I both case I can't change the resolution in W7.
I tried installing guest additions (failed) and finally understood it's not what to do in my case.
Since I'd like to use this configuration for work, I like to have my base image/environment fully working before I deploy some projects in different vms.
I apologize for that additional question on the topic but I'm afraid I have an additional problem.
Thanx a lot for your help.
Nicolas
