virtualbox ubuntu full screen windows 8.1

With systems with both nVidia and Intel may be booting in one mode not the other. If I am able to boot into installed Ubuntu, I probably will run into the same graphics problems, but maybe it's easier to fix them on an installed version? I'm added 'nomodeset', tried 'xforcevesa'.Ĭan anybody help me with eigher Boot-repair from CLI or graphics in live-CD?įor me it's weird that the installation is able to show a nice GUI where the liveCD doesn't find a screen. So I am trying to run Boot-repair but I'm stuck because I can't get the GUI working with the live-CD. (EE) Please also chech the log file at '/var/log/Xorg.0.log' for additional information. Please consult the The X.org Foundation support at for help. (EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration. (EE) VESA(0): V_BIOS address 0x0 out of range Looking at /var/log/xorg.0.log I noticed: Please consult the The X.org Foundation support at for help Trying to diagnose the problem this are the things I found: I tried installing nvidia-current when booted with the live-cd, restarting lightdm (/etc/init.d/lightdm stop/start). Unfortunately I can't find a way to do this from CLI, since I get a blank screen in X I cannot use it's GUI. I know this could happen and need to run boot-repair from the live-cd. I installed a dualboot with ubuntu 13.10 and Windows 8.1, UEFI, secure boot off (UEFI with CSM).Īfter the installation was a success the computer boots straight into windows. At first I couldn't boot nor install, after adding 'nomodeset' in Grub I was able to start the installation, Try ubuntu just gave me a blank screen. I have an MSi GE70 laptop (Graphics: nvidia GeForce GT650M).
