Public bug reported: I'm testing Ubuntu 16.04 as a guest of a VMWare Fusion guest under Mac OS X 10.11.1. All works fine, but I'm unable to set 1920x1080 resolution (monitor native) on external display. I can do 1920x1600 or more, but not 1920x1080. I have tried open-vm-tools and vmware-tools, but problem persists. On display-setting, the monitor is marked as unknown display.
1) Ubuntu Xenial Xerus (development branch) - release 16.04 2) xorg 1:7.7+12ubuntu1 3) Looking to change external display resolution as 1920x1080 4) I have not found the 1920x1080 setting ** Affects: xorg-server (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1517046 Title: Unable to set 1920x1080 resolution in Ubuntu 16.04 as a VMWare Fusion guest To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/1517046/+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
