Hi, I've built r7168, and it does work partially. There is a little problem left.
If I resize the guest windows, the screen does not automatically resize too. But if I open that gnome-display-properties thing, it suggests me the new resolution. I can then choose that resolution and it will change correctly. I have to do that everytime I resize the guest window. Alternatively I can type "xrandr -s 0", it will have the same effect. I think it could be just a configuration error of Ubuntu or something, but I don't know. The same happens if I just start a plain X session(only with VBoxClient, metacity and gnome-terminal) via startx/xinit. Here is a screenshot of it: http://eiffel56.mybonsai.at/Bildschirmfoto-69.png Thank you, Lisa Denia Michael Thayer wrote: > Lisa Denia wrote: > > Hi, > > > > mh, I don't get it working.
