Screen resolution only displaying 800x600 in Xubuntu

The issue is with VirtualBox.

You simply need to go to Devices » Install Guest Additions when you have Xubunutu running. This updates the OS.

    I am running Sun VirtualBox on a Windows 7 64-bit machine.

    I have installed Xubuntu 10.4 as a virtual machine but cannot seem to find an easy way of altering the screen resolution. Any ideas?

    Yes. You will have to install the guest additions once on every virtual machine, to enable full support for video and other drivers.
