Ubuntu Guest VM 1920x1080 Default
Instructions adapted from:
http://askubuntu.com/questions/6033/enabling-nvidia-driver-messes-up-splash-screen
Add the following to /etc/default/grub (below GRUB_GFXMODE):
GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=1920x1080
Create a file /etc/initframfs-tools/conf.d/splash containing:
FRAMEBUFFER=y
Run the following commands to finish:
sudo update-grub2 sudo update-initramfs -u
After doing this, the Ubuntu splash screen should be 1920×1080 and it should boot directly into that same resolution at the login screen. It will also keep that same resolution as it goes into your graphical session.
