I've been looking into this for a couple of evenings now, patching
xserver-xorg-video-vmware to find out where and why 1920x1080 mode is
disappearning. Turns out I've been looking in the wrong place, since
1920x1080 is simply never there. Digging where these modes are really
coming from I found a
Hmm, or maybe it's not entirely it. I tried downloading current kernel
source (apt-get source linux-image-`uname -r`), patching the desired
mode in:
diff -druN vmwgfx-orig/vmwgfx_kms.c vmwgfx-patched/vmwgfx_kms.c

Note that the xorg.conf only works in Kubuntu and Ubuntu. In Xubuntu it crashes
XFCE.
So the bug is still there, but the workaround works in some Ubuntu-flavors.
Still, Canonical should patch the issue.
We are almost at 13.04 and the issue is STILL in Ubuntu.

Initially I was the person who reported this bug. So I would like to
confirm xorg.conf which attached by intel (dts-dreamer) works for me as
a workaround. Now I can use 1920x1080 resolution in my VMware
Workstation 9 with Ubuntu 12.10.
Thanks for the workaround!

Never change a running system.
Well, I dared to upgrade Kubuntu from 12.04 to 12.1 and here's what
happened:
a) The resolution 1920x1080 is still there thanks to the xorg.conf by
intel (dts-dreamer) and can still be selected and set in the display
settings.
b) However, whenever I restart, the

Just to confirm, creating an xorg.conf as attached by the #patch from
intel (dts-dreamer) worked for me.
I don't know if any (other virtualized) hardware is (negatively)
affected by simply using this xorg.conf ...but setting 1920x1080 is now
available under display
@karanganesha04 @chris-m-solomon:
Are you sure that this does actually set the resolution and not only
stretches whatever resolution is actually set to cover the entire
screen? ...at least this is what happens for me when I try your method.
As for the xorg.conf fix: I had no luck with that as

problem.
(We can't possibly dig through every line since this regression popped up. Even
diffing xorg versions would be a tremendous work.)

I’m also unable the set 1920x1080 resolution trough the xrandr command.
Here are the possibilities:
