GIVE FULLSCREEN TO VIRTUALBOX ON MAC

This allowed me to get Ubuntu running with the desktop

Turn off the option “Enable Nested Paging” in the VM configuration under Setting->System->Acceleration.

Run this on MAC to give full screen option

$ sudo defaults write /Applications/VirtualBox.app/Contents/Resources/vmstarter.app/Contents/Info.plist LSUIPresentationMode -int 4

$ sudo defaults write /Applications/VirtualBox.app/Contents/Resources/VirtualBoxVM.app/Contents/Info.plist LSUIPresentationMode -int 4

$ sudo chmod 644 /Applications/VirtualBox.app/Contents/Resources/VirtualBoxVM.app/Contents/Info.plist

$ sudo chmod 644 /Applications/VirtualBox.app/Contents/Resources/vmstarter.app/Contents/Info.plist
