Fullscreen mode in VirtualBox

I just did a fresh install of GhostBSD 21.01.20, after installing virtualbox-ose-additions yet still it stays 'small screen' in fullscreen mode, same goes for resizing window which also doesnt change the size of VM screen (Auto-resize Guest Display is on).
Shared clipboard also doesnt work...

- Stop (shut down) the guest
- set its graphics to VBoxSVGA
- ignore the in-application yellow alert – ignore the VMSVGA recommendation
- do not enable 3D acceleration.

☑ bidirectional shared clipboard
☑ mouse integration
☑ screen resizing
– I didn't test full screen or seamless during live boot.
Tested with GhostBSD installed:
☑ full screen
☑ seamless
- screen shot
Excellent!
