Complete full screen?

[dellthinker]

Hi all, I've just installed VMWare Workstation 7 and loving the features, however I need to make the guest completely full screen. I've install the guest additions for the guest for a Debian virtual machine properly and completely. Now I'm trying to get it to go full screen, when I click the full screen button in the VMWare application it goes full but the resolution is not all the way, I set the resolution of my laptop to the native 1360x750 but when I enter full screen mode on the guest it doesn't fill the screen completely. How can I accomplish this? Thanx in advance.

when you click View, does it have autofit guest selected?

FWIIW:

I am running on Ubuntu (Debian derivative) host and it goes full screen (1600x1200) on a 2 monitor system.

Edit: I guess the obvious other question is did you install VMwareTools and are they running. I also run with compiz turned off, don't know it that matters for full screen, it does for Unity.

Yes the VMware tools are installed and the autofit is checked. However it still looks un even. Though when I click the quick switch option it fits nicely but I can't see the icons on the desktop like Home or Trash. What gives?

Edit: Nevermind, I just played around with it and found out that it wasn't at my host machines resolution and kept quick switching it.
