Instructions below:  Note**** resolutions for our monitors are 1440x900 for the widescreen and 1280x1024 for the more square shaped monitor.... Don't use 1920x1080.


Here is how you can change the resolution of Ubuntu (Linux) running in Hyper-V:

• Install linux-image-extras (hyperv-drivers): sudo apt-get install linux-image-extra-virtual
• Open the Terminal and type: sudo gedit /etc/default/grub
• Find the line starting with GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT, and add video=hyperv_fb:1920x1080(or your preferred resolution) in between the quotes (The maximum possible resolution is 1920x1080) like this: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash video=hyperv_fb:1920x1080"
• Save and Exit
• Run sudo update-grub
• Restart Hyper-V (restarting Ubuntu (Linux) might be enough)
•
