Windows 8, Fedora 19 OS Hyper-V Virtual Machine

Question

I installed Fedora 19 in windows 8 hyper-v and its working fine but there is one small problem with the display setting, as fedora 19 display setting not providing 1366x768, but i need to set the display to 1366x768 to view full screen, so any suggestions??

Accepted Answer

Open a Terminal (Ctrl-Alt-T)

Run

```
  sudo vi /etc/default/grub 
```

Find the line starting with GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX, and add

```
  video=hyperv_fb:[the resolution you want]
```

If the resolution I want is 1280×720 then my line ends up looking like this:

```
    GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="… quiet splash video=hyperv_fb:1280×720"
```

Write the changes and quit vi by hitting ESC and typing

```
  :wq
```

Run:

```
  sudo grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
```

or when installed in EFI mode

```
  sudo grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/efi/EFI/fedora/grub.cfg
```

Reboot the virtual machine
