[Touch-packages] [Bug 1712223] Re: performing dist-upgrade results in open-vm-tools no longer working
I can confirm that using X11 as you suggested instead of Wayland is a
viable workaround and that both multi-monitor support and resolution re-
scaling work when moving VMWare Workstation around.

At first I thought this bug was caused with the recent changes in
open-vm-tools 10.1.10; however, after restoring my VM to the snapshot
that had 17.04 and re-performing the dist-upgrade with open-vm-tools

issue where VMWare Workstation no longer can interact with display
resolution detection of the host monitor(s). Multiple monitor support
is also lost in the update process.

additional information about when one doesn't hold the package back
(note the error from VMWare Workstation 12.5).
Same thing happens even if the open-vm-tools and open-vm-tools-desktop
are held at 10.1.5.

This may be an intentional regression or simply something that got passed by. But I find this configuration option to be very useful when working on a Lenovo P70 w/ 17" 4k monitor (which neds 2x DPI scaling) and also when switching back to my multiple-monitor configuration (which doesn't need any scaling).
