Chris, Rojer, On my Ubuntu 12.04 VM (3.2.0-64-generic kernel) I deleted /lib/modules/3.2.0-64-generic/kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/vmwgfx/vmgfx.ko and display seems to work fine now. There is no split issue and the screen resolution is dynamically configured (I have VMwareTools-9.2.2-893683 installed). On the other side, window maximization when we move an application window on the top of the desktop doesn't work.
