Yesterday I got to get out and install Ubuntu on virtual machine. Soon I will have a final project in which I have to create a server for an alleged office and will choose the OS I want. . I've decided I will choose Linux Server because I think in the future (hopefully) companies realize how unproductive it is to use Windows in all areas and switch to Linux (Mac mola, a server must be cool).

The application for virtual machines that I have chosen was Virtual Box. I am too lazy to do the serial search function to VMWare or Parallels and for what it offers Virtual I stay with him. It'll teach you how to create a new virtual machine because many people have published many tutorials. I leave you with that Valiant did a few weeks ago a screencast:

How to solve the problem? After the jump!

Why Ubuntu did not detect my precious screen of my iMac?

Although I have to tell that to this question I have not been solved, yes I have improved. I have to say that at first Linux in general at first I did get me out of my boxes because the things he did not come out on the first (installation and configuration). My first installation of Ubuntu does not have much idea of ​​how you could configure to your liking, and most importantly, how to install Flash. In class assembly and maintenance when trying to install Ubuntu and Kubuntu on the same machine with different hard disk and after installing the two systems could not get boot for putting a boot loader. And finally a practical mount I had to install the hard drive DSL Linux distribution. After-school Just wondering: Did I become a useless idler and said Caesar ? The truth is that we first turn to Twitter before because there you can find people very interesting and very knowledgeable (but this I leave for another day), then turn to Google than I have the following principle: When your string of words is greater , the less chance you have of finding what you want.

Let's what matters: when you have already installed Ubuntu on your Mac probably want to resize the screen to the actual resolution (in my case 1920X1200 = 16:10) but only gives us the possibility of having to 800x600 and 640x480 formats (anbas format 4:3). I was giving him a lot of laps on this until I realized that if you do not install the driver VirtualBox Additions Guess consiguirías not solve this problem (in part). But another problem was that you could not install because it was Guess Additions in. Exe and as you may have noticed this format is unique to Windows. I tried installing Wine but it did not work. You had to do is to finish writing the following:

  sudo / media/cdrom/VBoxLinuxAdditions-x86.run
 (Run the file needed to install Guess Additions:
 VBoxLinuxAdditions-x86.run) 

Then write the password (no need to log in as root) and at the end you can restart by command:

  sudo shutdown-r 0
 (Disconnect immediately restarted,
 You can change the variable by the time you want in sec.) 

Restarts and you will see that from the shows you on a higher resolution and you can resize it to a higher resolution: 1360X768 (16:9).

If you are good at English and want more details, see the entry of this blog is where I have solved the problem. If you know another way to install, accessing as root and explained perfectly applicable to Debian, but you can see this post .
