I believe you need to install the Guest Additions.

When you're running Mint in Virtualbox click on Devices on the top menu, and click on Install Guest Additions.

This will mount the required videodriver install data.

Open up a terminal, su for root privileges.

Code: Select all

sh /media/cdrom0/VBoxLinuxAdditions.run
