[solved ]Arch in Virtualbox resolution problem [max 800x600 available]

Hi,

i have installed Arch64 as Guest in Virtualbox 2.0.6 and have installed the GuestAdditions, Host ist Vista64 Business

I like to change the desktop resolution to 1280x1024, but xrandr says only 640x480 and 800x600 are available.[1]

can anyone help? or is only max 800x600 supportet by virtualbox

[1]
myhost% xrandr
Screen 0: minimum 640 x 480, current 800 x 600, maximum 800 x 600
default connected 800x600+0+0 0mm x 0mm
   800x600        61.0*
   640x480        60.0 
myhost%


   640x480        60.0 


myhost% xrandr -s 1280.1024
Size index 1280 is too large, there are only 2 sizes
myhost%


EDIT: I must use an xorg.conf, because the vboxvideo driver is not used per default (default is vesa) now I get 1024x768

Have you tried to turn it off and on again?
