    For 1920x1080p : no need to restart the computer. after doing this just go to view -> virtual screen 1 -> select screen resolution 1920x1080p, after that right ctrl + f you will see ubuntu in fullscreen mode.

    Thanks so much for this. It buggered my VM display to begin with but after selecting “auto-resize guest display” under the View header on virtual box it fixed it and now it’s full screen. Thought it would be worth mentioning that you may need to hit that (which is the same as host + A, I believe)
