Hello all, This may not be the best place to ask this, but its not entirely inappropriate.
I have recently downloaded the free VMServer, created a virtual machine and installed XP Pro. When I try to switch to full screen mode (using the toolbar or CRTL-ALT-<enter>) not only does this *spectacularly* fail to work, but I am kicked out of my KDE session and wind up back at the kdm login screen. Not Good. This is using the nvidia binary driver (1.0-9629). However, if I change the screen resolution in XP to match what my monitor is using (1280x1024) *before* switching to full screen mode, the full screen works OK, but then of course the non-full screen view requires scroll bars to navigate the desktop. If I switch to the supplied open nv driver, the full screen mode works fine, regardless of the selected resolution of XP (at least the ones I have tried). The monitor switches to 800x600 for example and the XP "desktop" fills the entire screen. In the non-full screen view the XP desktop just sits inside the VMware application as I would expect it to. I suppose this could be a bug in the binary nvidia driver, but it might also have something to do with my particular settings. I am just not very familiar with virtual machines so I though I would ask here. Anyone else seeing this behavior? kde 3.5.5 release "45.1" VMware 1.01 nvidia driver 1.0-9629 kernel 2.6.16.21-0.21-smp -- Don -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
