I need some help. I have installed SW13 and I cannot seem to be able to configure my display resolution. Under windows I have it configure as 1440by900 pixels, colors = 32bit, chip = intel 965 express. Under SW the resolution = 800by600. I have try to change the resolution size but have not been able to do it. I try to run the xorgconfig command but is not installed on the computer. Any help would be appreciated.

That is correct. I'm running VirtualBox. I have just tried to install the addons but got the following message:
Verifying archive integrity... All good.
Uncompressing VirtualBox 3.1.6 Guest Additions for Linux........
VirtualBox Guest Additions installer
Removing installed version of VirtualBox Guest Additions...
Building the VirtualBox Guest Additions kernel modules ...fail!
(Your system does not seem to be set up to build kernel modules.
Look at /var/log/vboxadd-install.log to find out what went wrong)
Installing the Window System drivers

You may need to restart the hal service and the Window System (or just restart
the guest system) to enable the Guest Additions.

I'm going to have to look into installing the modules. Thanks again for your help.
Yes that is correct. I didn't do the full install. But I got the problem fix after I installed all the packages from the D folder. Everything is working OK now. Thank you so much for your help.
