Python Screen Virtual Machine

In a virtual box, the screen resolution can be anything - even something strange, like 993x451, etc. I tried changing it using pywin32, but I could not:

>>> dm = win32api.EnumDisplaySettings(None, 0)
>>> dm.PelsHeight = 451
>>> dm.PelsWidth = 950
>>> win32api.ChangeDisplaySettings(dm, 0)
-2L

which ends:

DISP_CHANGE_BADMODE

any help?

The way I found this is to enable automatic resizing of the client from the guest OS. Then, in the host OS, programmatically resize the VM window. This will change the resolution.

Have you configured the virtual machine to actually advertise this mode in the OS?

edit: VirtualBox , . (. ), . VESA VESA. , , , . ( smdline, , ) , YMMV.

, : VBoxManage controlvm

, : VBoxManage setextradata global GUI/MaxGuestResolution xres, yres
