Maximize causes incorrect guest resolution at startup — at Initial Version
Reported by: | Richard Perry | Owned by: | |

Guest type: | other | Host type: | Windows |
Description
Problem:
When the guest window is maximized, at next reboot, the window is maximized but the guest O/S within is not, leaving a large border around the guest O/S.
You then have to restore ( un-maximize ) the window, and maximize again to get the guest O/S to set itself to the correct resolution.
When you have a normal ( un-maximized ) window set roughly the same size, the problem does not occur, the guest O/S resolution is restored at next reboot.
How to re-create:
- Maximize guest O/S window
- Shutdown guest O/S
- Startup guest O/S
Additional:
Host maximized resolution is 1650x1050 Host is Windows XP but may also affect other host O/S. Guest O/S are Windows XP and Ubuntu, probably affects other guest O/S.
Screenshots of the problem are attached.
