Public bug reported:
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 and
open-vm-tools-desktop held at 10.1.5 I am experiencing the same 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.
