Thanks for the ping on this old case Alexander! Can you confirm that this is what you see on 22.04 with the there recent 2:11.3.5-1ubuntu4 version of open-vm-tools?
I have subscribed John Wolfe who looks after open-vm-tools from VMwares side and might have more details. Further I added a bug task for "wayland" so that the Desktop team can have a look as well. ** Also affects: wayland (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1712223 Title: open-vm-tools does not work under wayland To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/open-vm-tools/+bug/1712223/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
