Details

    • Bug
    • Resolution: Fixed
    • Major
    • 0.4.15
    • Win32SS
    • VirtualBox 6.1.30

    Description

      Basically clone of ticket CORE-17896, but a new regression.

      • Partially degraded in 0.4.15-dev-4370-g3cb1dd8
      • Completely regressed in 0.4.15-dev-4378-ga0cfdcd .. 0.4.15-dev-4380-g2d2824f

      Steps to reproduce:

      • Install ReactOS BootCD on VirtualBox (tested version 6.1.30)
      • Install VirtualBox Guest Additions
      • Get to the desktop and maximize or resize VM window
      • Expected: Screen size is being adjusted to VM window
      • Observed: Screen size is unchanged

      It's possible to change screen resolution manually in the Display Properties to make it fit the VM window, just like in the previous ticket.

      There is different behaviour on different commits documented below:
