i read it again, but what i get from the older post is that when the additions 
are meant for linux guest. i could of course be wrong, because i haven't tried 
the additions myself under FBSD, but i think that the additions would run 
properly .

My understanding from a previous post in this list (Around december
18th) was that VBoxLinuxAdditions-x86.run was specifically tied to the
Linux kernel
This also what I experimented.

mount it in the guest (linux) system and there is a file callled 
VBoxLinuxAdditions-x86.run
as root all you need to do is cd in the mounted folder and run:
./VBoxLinuxAdditions-x86.run

How to make VirtualBox have higher (full screen) resolution?

2009-12-20 Thread Yuri

I can only run Linux in VirtualBox with 800x647 resolution.

How can I make it larger or just full screen?

Thanks,
Yuri
