VMware Tools establishes the virtual monitor that is required for you to set display resolution. <div>On 7/27/07, Tomoki Taniguchi <<a href="mailto:tomoki.taniguchi@gmail.com"> tomoki.taniguchi@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">I have installed feisty server on a vmware-server running on top of windows. I installed the server version because i don't want to run X everytime I want to use linux command line tool. Anyway, I am finding the resolution on the virtual console i log into too low. Is there anyway to increase the resolution of a virtual console under vmware? I tried including the vga=792 in grub but on boot i get an error stating unspupported resolution or something like that. Is there a special way to change the resolution on a virtual console when running under vmware? I was also curious to know if there is any reason to install vmware-tools in a non-X environtment? Would i get any benifits by installing it?
