Hello,
I'm completely new to BSD but not to GNU/Linux distros. I'm living in Normandy - France.
Talking with Unix friends and after some investigations, I have chosen FreeBSD. But it was a little bit hard to implement it. So, I have chosen PC-BSD 10.1.1 which is built on FreeBSD.
I installed PC-BSD 10.1.1 as a guest in VirtualBox 4.3.26 under an Ubuntu 14.04.1 host, all in 64-bit. Everything went well, except...
The only one issue left is with the Guest additions I cannot install at all! When with Linux guests, everything is okay. I spend a few weeks searching on the Web in several forums, but with no success!
Question 1: Are FreeBSD / PC-BSD working as guests in VirtualBox with "Resizing the machine's window" for matching the host resolution, as with GNU/Linux distros?
Question 2: If the answer is yes, what is the right procedure for doing so?
You can have a look at my following post (in French): PC-BSD 10.1.1 Joule | Bureau KDE Plasma 4.14.2.
Many thanks for your help.
Joe
