Hi chrisfriedt, I have the same issue on Ubuntu 14.04 host.
I found this issue on VM created with an older version of vmware player (version 5.0.x) that generate VMs in version "Workstation 6.5-7.x virtual machines". This issue is still present even if I use these VMs with the lastest version of vmware player. According to my tests, VMs created with the lastest version of vmware player are in version "Workstation 10.0 virtual machines" and don't have this issue. So, I think this issue is related to the version of the VM. So among people who have this issue, it may be useful to know the version of their VMs in order to reproduce the problem. For example, about the question on https://communities.vmware.com/message/2388776, dominicus said "This install has been stable for >2yrs, but after some Ubuntu updates today, my screen now boots into 3 repeated and truncated panes." so he must have a VM with an older version. I will try to perform tests that you noticed me and keep you informed. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-vmware in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1328898 Title: VMware guest video broken by the 3.2.0.64 kernel update To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-vmware/+bug/1328898/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
