スパックマン クリス<p>note to self (and whoever else might have this issue): when <a href="https://twit.social/tags/VirtualBox" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>VirtualBox</span></a> freaks out resizing because it creates scrollbars then resizes because of the scrollbars, then removes then adds back ad nausium, just go to View and turn OFF "auto-resize Guest display".</p><p>I also turned off 3d and switched to a different graphics controller (VboxSVGA), but those didn't work by themselves.</p><p>All this so I can run an ancient MS Win exe in <a href="https://twit.social/tags/Wine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Wine</span></a> for my <a href="https://twit.social/tags/CyberSecurity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CyberSecurity</span></a> class.</p>
