If you have ...Alright, just to get this out there: <br />If you have just a CLI(Command Line Interface), WITHOUT a GUI, installing VBOX Guest Additions will NOT make it so you have a fullscreen resolution.<br />There is no way around it other than ssh-ing into it with PuTTY or something alike. Only then you will be able to emulate a fullscreen.<br /><br />IF you still want to just install VBOX Guest Additions anyway, you can do so by: ./VBoxLinuxAdditions.run --nox11, EVEN THOUGH THIS WILL NOT SOLVE YOUR PROBLEM.<br /><br />Go the ssh route with a program like PuTTY and forward a port like 3021 on host port and port 22 on guest port.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1347211857845165663.post-84652563088586177562015-12-12T00:02:45.730-06:002015-12-12T00:02:45.730-06:00Thank you very much.
