Resize Screen crashes Everything

Reported by: jerry ely Owned by:

Guest type: Linux Host type: Windows

Description

I am using Windows 10, VirtualBox Graphical User Interface Version 6.1.4 r136177 (Qt5.6.2)

with an Ubuntu 18.04 LTS guest. Once the guest is installed and rebooted, resizing the screen in windows can lock the VM, and eventually the whole PC.

Steps to reproduce resize the screen and before the guest is refreshed add a little more screen. Different kinds of hangs but the VM guest is always hung. Sometimes VBox host hangs also.

Same here. Ubuntu 19.10 and 20.04 - same issue - screen resize does NOT work. Everyone in this thread is experiencing the same! https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=97686&p=474695#p474695
