I can confirm that when installing virtulbox-ose-guest-utils on 9.04 the kernel module fails to build and this limits the graphics capabilities of the VM. |

I am running VirtualBox OSE 2.0.4.
When I run Ubuntu 9.04 "Jaunty Jackalope" (alpha 1) -- (jaunty-alternate-i386.iso).
The only options for screen resolutions I have is 800x600 and 640x480.
When I run Windows 2008 Server through VirtualBox, I can select higher resolutions without problem. |
[Problem]
VirtualBox 2.2beta2 was updated to work with the xserver 1.6 API, included in Jaunty. Prior versions of VirtualBox won't work with Jaunty's xserver and will lead to various problems due to the incompatibility.
Solution is to upgrade to VirtualBox 2.2beta2 or newer.
