(Solved) Changing Salix OS resolution in VirtualBox.

Post by globetrotterdk »

I am running an instance of Salix OS LXDE 13.37 under Xubuntu 11.04 (desktop box), in VirtualBox 4.0.4 OSE, that I apply changes to, before I make changes to a comparable Salix install on my netbook. I practiced installing GRUB as boot loader with the VB installation. When booting, the window expands to fill almost the entire monitor, unfortunately when the boot log-in appears, the window size is under a quarter of the size of my monitor and difficult to work in. How do I increase the size of Salix OS inside VirtualBox?
