Hi,

I managed to install Ubuntu 8.04 in Virtual PC 2007, but max resolution is
896x600.
Adding vga=791 only increases the resolution during boot and then it reverts
back to 896x600.

Any ideas on how to get 1024x768 and 1280x1024 to work?

Also, are there any additions for mouse integration?

Thanks,
ED

A better place to ask about this would be an Ubuntu forum. The fact that
you are running Ubuntu as a guest in VPC doesn't matter.

Hi,
I think that Virtual box from Innotek/Sun ould be better to load an Ubuntu
system. Virtual Box support Linux and add on for mouse and so on. I try it
and it works.
Best regards
