Have F7 x86_64 host.
installed latest vbox.
Guest OS is F8 i386.
Doing this to see if things will work well.

Have these 2 problems:
1. even though display is 1280x800, I am not able to
   get the guest display to full screen when I go
   to full screen mode. Also, when trying to configure
   the display graphically (via system-config-display,
   there is not resolution of 1280x800 available).
   The hardware def for the screen does have
   generic lcd 1280x800. So, I manually modified
   xorg.conf and added 1280x800 to the modes line -
   and rebooted - to no avail.

   I have the following xorg.conf:
code:
# Xorg configuration created by system-config-display

Section "ServerLayout"
        Identifier     "single head configuration"
        Screen      0  "Screen0" 0 0

EndSection

        Identifier  "Keyboard0"
        Driver      "kbd"

EndSection

EndSection

        Device     "Videocard0"
        Monitor    "Monitor0"
        DefaultDepth     24
        SubSection "Display"
                Viewport   0 0
                Depth     24
                Modes    "1280x800" "800x600" "640x480"
        EndSubSection
EndSection


2. I am not able to bring up ethernet.
   During boot, it says eth0 does not exist.
   On host, I have interface
virbr0    Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:00:00:00:00:00
          inet addr:192.168.122.1  Bcast:192.168.122.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          inet6 addr: fe80::200:ff:fe00:0/64 Scope:Link
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:18829 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:0
          RX bytes:0 (0.0 b)  TX bytes:4196744 (4.0 MiB)

So, what do I need to do to fix these 2 problems?
