Unable to change display resolution Ubuntu 18.04 on Xenserver VM
No login box for xrdpCan XenCenter connect to xen-hypervisor-amd64Unable to increase monitor resolutionShift + special key does not work using real vnc viewer in windows to access ubuntuVNC viewer authentication dialog not displaying on Ubuntu 18.04Blur and unclear content on Ubuntu gnome desktop on VM being accessed through VNC viewerUBUNTU 18.04 with Intel Integrated Graphics caps the resolution to 2048x1080 on 1440p displayHow to setup Ubuntu machine to get custom resolution similar to when using -geometry option in vncserver?screen resolution change in ubuntu 16.04 lts server automatically when i connect remote desktop from windows 10 using tight vnc viewer softwareUbuntu XFCE4 Resolution
I'm using Dell T410 server with Free version of Xenserver 7.4, i installed Ubuntu 18.04 VM all went well but i'm unable to adjust the resolution
from ubuntu settings, showing just 800X600, see attached image taken from VNC Viewer but look the same if i use XenCentre or Xen Orchestra console. i also installed Windows 10 vm and using Microsoft RDP App installed on my iMac to access and it working ok i can change any resolution from both the VM or the RDP App settings and have sound. but on the Ubuntu i think it picks up the Dell driverHW with no option to change the resolution, as you see from the screen shot even the setting page doesn't fit the screen. in general i would like to do the same as windows VM, RDP with Microsoft if possible as preferred. I did manage to use VNC Viewer but resolution was the same. i did install the XS Guest tools on both the Windows and Ubuntu vms but didn't help with the resolution on ubuntu. i also researched online but only found outdated solution from 2016 XS V6.5 and Ubuntu 16.04 but no solution helped.
I use this setup as a home lab to learn about servers, linux CLI and VMs, so i wish to have a similar environment as a desktop.
my questions are :
how do i fix the resolution, do i need to install a XS or Ubuntu driver?
what you normally using in production and home lab environment to access the VM, RDP Client?
what RDP you recommend to get for best compatibility and environment as a desktop?
Thank you for your help

1.Shutdown your VM.
2.From the command line, find the UUID of your VM:
xe vm-list name-label='Name of your VM'
3.Taking the UUID value, run the following command:
xe vm-param-remove uuid=UUID param-name=platform param-key=vga
4.You can always switch back to the default driver with the following command:
xe vm-param-set uuid=UUID platform:vga=std
