Virtualbox unable to install due to super small screen #322
-
|
Launching the distro in VB gives me a screen of 640*480 and I'm not able to modify the resolution. As a result the installer can't work as the screen is too small. Is there something I need to add to grub to run the live version in Virtualbox 6.1.30_SUSE r148432?

Hi there, that's just the way VirtualBox works by default. If you manually resize the host VirtualBox window then the guest will start adjusting. Also make sure you're using the "VMSVGA" graphics controller, which is the default for me in VirtualBox 6.1.30_SUSE r148432. |

Setting it to VMSVGA solved it, thanks. :) |

Great, thanks for confirming that. That should be the default for new VMs in VirtualBox. |
