I've performed a dist-upgrade on my Kali VM and everything works fine except for the screen resolution which defaults to 1280x768 instead of 1920x1080.
My setup:
Kali XFCE running inside VMWare hypervisor. Host is Windows 10 x64.
Upgraded from Kali 2017.1 and kernel 4.0.9.Code:[root:~]# uname -a Linux kali 4.13.0-kali1-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.13.13-1kali1 (2017-11-17) x86_64 GNU/Linux [root:~]# cat /etc/os-release PRETTY_NAME="Kali GNU/Linux Rolling" NAME="Kali GNU/Linux" ID=kali VERSION="2017.3" VERSION_ID="2017.3" ID_LIKE=debian ANSI_COLOR="1;31" HOME_URL="http://www.kali.org/" SUPPORT_URL="http://forums.kali.org/" BUG_REPORT_URL="http://bugs.kali.org/" [root:~]# cat /etc/issue Kali GNU/Linux Rolling \n \l
Not using vmware tools but open-vm-tools.
Everything else (copy and paste, shared folders, etc) work fine.
I have a simple init script which at the moment fixes the screen resolution:
But I really don't know where/what to do inorder to natively fix it.Code:#!/bin/bash xrandr --newmode "1920x1080_60.00" 173.00 1920 2048 2248 2576 1080 1083 1088 1120 -hsync +vsync xrandr --addmode Virtual1 1920x1080_60.00 xrandr --output Virtual1 --mode 1920x1080_60.00
I see no warnings/errors in logs.
VMWare view has not been modified from its previous settings (Full Screen, Autofit Guest).
Anyone who can give me hints on how to debug this issue?
Thanks a lot
