custom X resolution?
 
Hi,

I am running vmware and my laptop monitor size is 1280x800.
800x600 is too small, and 1024x768 it a bit too big.
I would like to try run a resolution of about 1100x700.
Possible?

Thanks :cool:

Only if your video card supports it.

but isn't my video card the vmware SVGA card?

and its in a window, not a physical resolution on the monitor, i know it must be possible,
anybody know? (i dont make my session full screen)

Sorry, yes.
You can use any special vga mode that is supported by the VMware Tools on the guest OS.
