Good work, however: It is not true that uninstalling the Linux guest additions
is not possible. Perhaps not that easy as installing like running a shell
script but it _is_ possible:
o to deinstall the special X drivers just rename /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak
to /etc/X11/xorg.conf
o then do
/etc/init.d/vboxadd-timesync stop
/etc/init.d/vboxvfs stop
/etc/init.d/vboxadd stop
(in that order). This should remove the kernel modules. Then simply remove
these scripts and they won't be executed at the next time you are booting
your guest.
And I'm still sure that your "oversized" guest screen problem ist solved. If
there is no video mode specified in the /etc/X11/xorg.conf then 1024x768 is
used. This was introduced in 1.3.6. If you still see this problem you could
try to manually overwrite the vboxvideo_drv.so and vboxmouse_drv.so in /usr/
lib/xorg/modules/{drivers,input} to make sure nothing went wrong during your
last update. If you still have this problem then I would be interested in your
Xorg.0.log.
Thanks in advance + kind regards,
Frank
