Two weeks ago I did a release-upgrade to 18.04.01 an since then, the GUI always comes up with a resolution of 800x600 after reboot. I can set it to 1440x900, but after reboot I have 800x600 again. Maximizing the VMware Workstation window also maximizes the displaysize in the client. vmware-tools are installed again. Had no problems with 16.04 though... Any clues? Cheers Rainer
