I have just updated my ubuntu to ubuntu trusty and its all zoomed (I guess the resolution). I cant scroll any window to the bottom because it is too big. How do I change this. I have tried going into system settings but no luck

I just had this problem as well.

In the past this trick worked:

sudo apt-get install virtualbox-guest-*

This no longer worked for me with broken virtualbox-guest-x11 dependencies in 14.04.2. Instead once I installed I did the following:

  1. Update to latest VirtualBox version (4.3.12 to 4.3.26)
  2. Start the vm
  3. Select "Insert Guest Additions CD" from the Devices Menu and ran it
  4. Restart

Screen resolution / zoom in virtual box now works properly. I'm on a mac / osx yosemite.
