I downgraded my VMware player to 12.1.0 build-327244 i use the open-vm-
tools package 2:10.0.7-2ubuntu1

I still cannot switch from single to dual or tripple. When i try this i get the 
following error in my kern.log:
###########
May 12 16:56:29 DEV08 kernel: [ 4968.928257] [drm:vmw_sou_crtc_set_config 
[vmwgfx]] *ERROR* Multiple framebuffers not supported
May 12 16:56:29 DEV08 kernel: [ 4969.247008] [drm:vmw_cmdbuf_work_func 
[vmwgfx]] *ERROR* Command buffer error.
########

The weird thing is, i could copy this from my ubuntu guest to my windows
7 host. The other thing that is weird, afther i try this, my mouse is
50% off, it seems that the mouse capture assumes dual screen instead of
single screen. when i click the "single" screen button in vmware player
everything goes back to normal.

I installed a second (clean) VM with ubuntu 16.04 for testing and it had
exactly the same issue!
