Running the Live CD in VMware Player 2.02 exhibits this problem. With Hardy Alpha 5 it was still possible to change to a higher resolution (I used 1024x768) in the System=>Preferences=>Screen Resolution application, despite the fact that the only Refresh Rate listed was 0Hz.
With Alpha 6 the new Screen Resolution application does not allow the change to 1024x768. The Refresh Rate is listed as 0Hz again, but clicking the "Apply" button has no effect. The workaround using VMware Tools is not practical with VMware Player (it's intended to run ready-built VMs, so has no options to install the tools itself), and the fact that this solution requires a restart rules it out for testing the Live CD. -- [hardy] only get 800x600 in vmware https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/172821 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
