# Manjaro Fixes |
||||
|
||||
## VMWare Workstation |
||||
|
||||
### VMWare Tools Adaptive Display Resolution Does not Work with Manjaro Guest |
||||
|
||||
On install Manjaro will have `open-vmware-tools` installed and running. However, this package appears to be *mostly* unmaintained |
||||
and doesn't seem to work out of the box. |
||||
|
||||
#### Reproducing |
||||
|
||||
Type the following commands |
||||
|
||||
```bash |
||||
sudo systemctl stop vmtoolsd.service |
||||
sudo systemctl start vmtoolsd.service |
||||
sudo systemctl restart vmtoolsd.service |
||||
``` |
||||
|
||||
The first two commands may not be necessary but I chose to completely bring it back down and up before restarting. After the |
||||
restart your screen resolution should adapt. If this is the case, apply the following fix to make it permanent: |
||||
|
||||
#### Fix |
||||
|
||||
```bash |
||||
sudo vi /usr/lib/systemd/system/vmtoolsd.service |
||||
``` |
||||
|
||||
and then in this section |
||||
|
||||
```bash |
||||
[Unit] |
||||
Description=VMware Tools |
||||
ConditionVirtualization=vmware |
||||
``` |
||||
|
||||
Add the following line at the end |
||||
|
||||
```bash |
||||
After=display-manager.service |
||||
``` |
||||
|
||||
So that it looks like: |
||||
|
||||
```bash |
||||
[Unit] |
||||
Description=VMware Tools |
||||
ConditionVirtualization=vmware |
||||
After=display-manager.service |
||||
``` |
||||
|
||||
and restart your guest. You should see the display adapt. |
