I don't use vmware, but for virtualbox I have "vesa 0x160" added to
/boot.cfg to the boot normally line:
menu=Boot normally:vesa 0x160;rndseed /var/db/entropy-file;boot

With that, I don't need to use xrandr and I can have a full-screen console
that uses my whole 1920x1080 monitor -without having to run X. I decided on
that by running "vesa test" from the boot prompt on startup and picking out
the resolution I wanted.

I don't see why the same idea wouldn't work on vmware but I can't try it at
the moment.
