Title: [vmware] Background goes white when using scaling (200%, 300% or 400%) Status in mutter package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in xserver-xorg-video-vmware package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: As soon as I set my display to scaled (any percentage) via Settings -> Displays -> Scale, the background image disappears and become all white. When I choose a different background image via Settings -> Background initially nothing happens. As soon as I switch back to 100% scaling, the image I choose before now appears. This problem started right after updating to 19.04. No such issues with either 18.04 or 18.10.
