Public bug reported:

Hi,

I am currently testing xubuntu 15.10 beta1 in a virtual machine under
virtualbox, running on Mac OSX with Virtualbox 5.0.2.

I've experienced two new problems, compared to a 14.04 LTS linux on the
same host.


- copy-and-paste between host and guest do not work, although enabled in the 
configs (works well with 14.04) 

- Screen resolution is given through too late.

  I have a Macbook Pro with Retina Display, which cause Ubuntu as a guest to 
select odd resolutions and have a wrong ratio. 
 
  I therefore have an autostart entry under 14.04 simply running  xrandr -s 
1440x900, and everything was fine. 


  However, under 15.10 this autostart entry does not work. It does not work 
either when I put it into ~/.xprofile. It just produces an error message that 
this resolution is not available. However, it works when I enter the command 
manually. It seems as if it receives the physical screen resolution just too 
late, after autostart.
