In VB 6.1.6 the Guest would resize to the selected resolution, then within a few seconds resize back to 800圆00. The Guest window will resize to the selected resolution. Pick one of the displayed resolutions to set the screen size seen by the OS running in the Guest. Select "Virtual Screen1" (for example) from the resulting drop down menu. Select "View" from the VM's top menu bar. If the Official Guest Additions have been installed in the Guest. Sep 2013, 19:31 Primary OS: Other VBox Version: OSE other Guest OSses: Arch. Will try suggestion next about nf: Tried, no luck. And my native external display resolution (1920 x 1080) isn't listed, so I either get scrollbars or only a subset of my screen. Qdbus 5 /kded unloadModule kscreen (from ) lets me resize the display through System Settings. VBoxSVGA does not have that problem, but it flickers so much as to be unusable. If I understand correctly, that should have fixed the 800圆00 issue, but it has not for me: if I use the KDE systems settings to set a different resolution, it briefly expands the window, but immediately shrinks it back. I have upgraded to 6.1.8 r137981 (somehow Check for New Updates had not told me there was a new version yesterday), and updated Arch which gave me virtualbox-guest-utils in version 6.1.8-2
