install guest additions virtualbox ubuntu 20.04

When booting with VirtualBox 6.29 whether using the 6.1.4 or the 6.1.6 guest additions, Xubuntu booted to too small a login screen.Īfter installing the 6.1.6 guest additions, it again booted to too small a login but then went to a black screen after logging in. Everything works fine with 6.1.4 and its guest additions and mostly OK with VirtualBox 6.1.6 and the 6.1.4 guest additions. I routinely boot and use virtual machines in full-screen (high-DPI 1920x1080) mode on a Windows 10 host, using VMSVGA with 128MB video RAM and a Linux (Xubuntu 19:04) guest. I am still trying to find out what goes wrong there. Guest is alive and all that and going out and coming back to full screen solves the problem. so, either it is not the same issue or the issue comes in windows GA before 6.1.4.

I removed GA616, installed GA614, set maximun guest size to auto, and marked 3d acceleration. (in my case, I had 3D on and Maximun guest size to auto)Īs soon as I find some moments I will try to go back to 6.1.4 in GA with VBOX previous settings and see if this solves. Use Maximum guest size to None in the preferencesĭo not maximize the guest window but resize it manually (whenever you maximize the display, it appears like it is frozen) Use VBoxSVGA (without 3D acceleration) as being the display device Anyhow, was solved using the workaround (as provided here ) Updated to 6.1.6, so, might be this is related to my settings and not to GA.

Might not be related to this bug as I started to use the external monitor at the same time as Then, once stabilized, guest frozen as explained. This happens when I plug to portable an external monitor, then rezising/resolution changes happen automatically. Simptoms were frozen guest every time IE11 was opened. I wish to bring to the table that this might be also happening also in Window guests (at least my combination W10 圆4 (1909/815) host and guest.
