KBar | Hi, guiverc. I just wanted to ask you about this: https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/new-desktop-installer-preview-build/24765/38?u=kbar | 10:33 |
KBar | How can I adjust resolution of a VirtualBox VM? | 10:34 |
KBar | Impossible to test the new installer as you mentioned. | 10:34 |
guiverc | yuk.. I'm stunned to find i used vbox to test.. I have NO recollection of it; but yep that's me. | 10:36 |
guiverc | I gotta go do some chores... I'll try & return in ~25-40 mins & turn the hp8200 on & look (thankfully I listed the OS too!) | 10:38 |
lotuspsychje | Leokolb: testing FF snap on -desktop (wayland) a while here, looks pretty responsive so far | 10:39 |
* guiverc has started zsync of canary; i'll aim to re-do test as iso.qa.ubu exists now for canary too | 10:41 | |
ubuntubridgebot | [telegram] <Leokolb> will try canary as well today :) | 10:45 |
* guiverc is back & powering up to look | 11:11 | |
KBar | I usually install guest additions (which enables fullscreen mode) after Ubuntu completes its installation. | 11:24 |
guiverc | KBar, my settings (display) that matter I think are "Graphics Controller: VBoxSVGA"; sorry I don't use vbox often in QA-testing... i just booted; and it's reporting 800x600 ng & don't usually make changes; but I think it was setting there that I changed; the resolutions mentioned I think are what the environment reported once booted ... trying to find what I changed; I can change resolution in GNOME settings to many; so maybe it was there | 11:24 |
guiverc | s/800x600 ng/800x600/ ^ i think | 11:24 |
guiverc | eg. once booted I changed it to 1920x1080 that suits one of my displays | 11:25 |
KBar | guiverc, VBoxSVGA works. Brilliant! You just made my life 100 times easier. Thank you! | 11:34 |
guiverc | You're most welcome (I rarely use vbox; so not usually helpful there, but glad I did help) | 11:34 |
KBar | We should probably add this useful info to this page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox | 11:35 |
KBar | Oh, nice. Now the canary image fits into my 4G USB stick too. What a great day! | 11:37 |
guiverc | If you want to, please do KBar... I'd not touch any doco with regards vbox myself as I don't feel competent with it (I don't use it much) | 11:37 |
guiverc | it being virtualbox | 11:37 |
KBar | Well, in my case, it's the opposite. :-D | 11:39 |
lotuspsychje | im also more the physical installer guy | 11:39 |
guiverc | fyi: 1952509 was filed on my won't fit issue (just now) | 11:54 |
ubuntubridgebot | [telegram] <Leokolb> KBar just remember after the install and reboot you have to adjust the display settings again.. (re @ubuntu_bridge_Bot: (irc) <KBar> We should probably add this useful info to this page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox) | 13:49 |
