I also tried with VBOXSVGA but it has far more Modeline than VMSVGA, including 1920x1080, so there is no such problem with in this case. I've tried with Acceleration enabled and disabiled with the same result. So it seems that 800圆00 is available soon after boot while 1920x1080 is not and, after restarting Xorg, the other way around. (II) vmware(0): Output Virtual1 using initial mode 1920x1080 +0+0 I think that the relevant differences are: So I tool a look at Xorg.0.log soon after boot and then after the telinit workaround. The workaround I'm using is sending the guest into runlevel 3 and then again into runlevel 5 so Xorg gets restarted and after doing that I can login successfully into my desktop at the desired resolution. The VM starts in Full-screen Mode on my second display which is set to 1920x1080.Īfter upgrading from 6.1.6 to 6.1.10 (I've skipped 6.1.8) I have the following problem: the greeter (lightdm) doesn't span the whole maximized VM window because the resolution is lower, but that should not be the problem, as far as I can remember this always happened on the first display of the greeter after boot.īut after logging in the screen remains black with a visible mouse cursor instead of displaying my desktop at 1920x1080. The Video Memory is set to 128MB and the Graphics Controller to VMSVGA.

As I've reported in some other tickets, I have a Oracle Linux Server release 7.8 VM running on Windows 10.
