I started using a Ubuntu from Virtual Box today because I was interested in Linux (I am not that good in coding, however) and found the design to be appealing.




People say to install 'guest additions' to the computer, but whenever I try to I get an error saying I can't mount the disk image.


How can I get the fullscreen effect?




I am running:

  • Linux Ubuntu 14.04
  • Virtual Box from oracle


    Does anyone have any idea how I can get past this?



    Can you make it noob-friendly, as I just started Ubuntu today?
