It's working that way for me now that I have installed kernel-ml-3.19.0
from elrepo in the guest. With the 2.6.32 kernel that CentOS 6
provides, the behavior could best be described as "confused." I might
get a login screen at 1024x768 but with the content rendered as though
it were 1440x900 and the login dialog half off the edge of the screen.
Or, I might be logged in and looking at a screen properly drawn at
1024x768, but when I bring up the display preferences dialog it claims I
am already at 1440x900 and refuses to change. And, occasionally when I
would try to change the resolution the display would lock up and, one
time, the whole X server crashed.
All that goes away with the guest running 3.19.0 kernel, and that also
makes sound work properly in the guest, so I'm happy now, at last.
