I just discovered that this problem only occurs if the resolution of the desktop where VMWare Server Console is running is identical to the resolution of the VM Guest,
For example, if my VMWare guest (XP Pro SP2, in this instance) is at 1024X768, but my Ubuntu desktop is 1280X800, clicking Full-Screen in the VMWare Server Conosle to bring it full-screen does not display the tooltip. It is only when both are identical that this errant tooltip display is occurring. Also, I don't know if this is a contributing factor, but I have configured my VMWare guest with maximum width and height settings which match the Ubuntu desktop where my VMWare Server Console runs (on an HP Pavilion zx5000 laptop). # settings in my .vmx config file for the VMWare guest svga.maxWidth=1280 svga.maxHeight=800 -- Tooltip from VMWare Server Console displays through VM Full-Screen mode https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/128854 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug contact for meta-gnome2 in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
