installed ubuntu on VM (virtualBox). How do I get the right screensize without losing real estate from the ununtu desktop within the vm virtualbox window. Can't see the full desktop.

You will need to install Virtual Box Guest Additions to be able to do that. – Javier Rivera Oct 20 '14 at 06:32

Start your Virtual Machine
Select 'View' in menu bar
Select 'Auto resize guest display' option
Install Guest Additions and Extension Pack.
Also, if you installed Virtualbox from the software center, uninstall it and get the latest version from here: virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads

Auto re-size guest display or hitting the host+G keys, is dimmed out so I cannot select it. How does one get the option available? Thanks!! – user3242313 Oct 19 '14 at 17:56
