Kubuntu 21.04 no longer loading in VirtualBox?

cn flag

Let me start by saying I'm a novice at Linux and a total noob with VirtualBox. I installed Kubuntu 21.04, everything was running great for a few weeks, except the screen size would always boot to something tiny (like 800x600). So every time I loaded it, I'd have to open up konsole and enter

xrandr --newmode "1920x1080"  173.00  1920 2048 2248 2576  1080 1083 1088 1120 -hsync +vsync
xrandr --addmode Virtual1 1920x1080
xrandr --output Virtual1 --mode 1920x1080

I got tired of doing that, so I made a startup script that would run the commands when the VM booted up. In the same session, I also tried to set up a shared host-guest folder to transfer files. After exiting and reloading the VM, the OS hangs on

[     6.502884]  [drm:vmw_host_log [vmwgfx]] *ERROR* Failed to send host log message.
[     6.503359]  [drm:vmw_host_log [vmwgfx]] *ERROR* Failed to send host log message.

And I can't do anything but shut down VirtualBox. I've gotten other messages occasionally as well, such as

[  OK  ] Finished Set console scheme.
[  OK  ] Finished Terminate Plymouth Boot Screen.

But the program still hangs unresponsive, and I can't type anything into the terminal.

Anyone have any idea what's going on? Please let me know if you need any additional info.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
