I have a Ubuntu 12.04.1 (64bits) system, running perfectly alongside Windows 7. I needed to create a Virtual Machine in VBox running the same 12.04.1 (64bits).

I have

  • a 15 inch notebook w/ NVidia Graphics, display running at 1920*1080 on the host system.
  • installed the Guest Additions and restarted the VM
  • Configured the VM for 128 MB (max) of memory for the graphics

I can only configure the 4:3 display resolutions: 1280*960 / 1023*768 / 800*600

What can i do to be able to have 16/10 1920*1080?
