This is typical with HVMs. Since they don't have a Qubes/Xen specific
video driver installed, they can only offer a basic set of resolutions.

Make sure the IP settings within your Parrot qube match those displayed
in Qube Settings/Basic tab.

recently in this mailing list.

[qubes-users] Problems creating a new virtual machine - Parrot Security OS

2020-02-22 Thread redpollwan
Hi everybody
I have been struggling with this now for a couple of days and its sending 
me around the bend.

I finally got it installed with a couple of problems that have me stumped.

I can't the new vm to full screen.  It opens in a smaller screen.  I don't 
know if this is a problem with the host vm settings as early on the setup 
of Parrot I saw a brief window saying something along the lines of the the 
host hadn't set up display...that's all I can remember of it.  I have been 
into the global vm settings but I can't find anything to do with display?

The second thing is that I can't Parrot to connect to the internet.  It 
goes through the task of trying but then it gives me "Parrot has 
disconnected from"  I don't think this is a problem in Parrot as I've 
had it running in both VM Ware and Virtual Box without this problem.  I 
currently have Parrot to link to the internet via the default sys- but to 
no avail,

If anybody can throw some light on what I might be missing or point me to a 
tutorial on it I'd appreciate it. I have perused the QUBES documentation to 
no avail.

I am reasonably competent with Linux based systems (to my own level that 
is), but this QUBES is a new learning curve that I won't shy away from.  I 
have now spent more than a day trying to master this, searching etc, so 
turning here is my current hope.  I hope I've provided enough info.

Thanks for any help.
