Hi, I tried `xrandr --output default --gamma 1 --auto`, however my display isn't resizing. I found a solution for xfce4 here, which works to resize the display at the VMWare window is scaled or is in full screen, however I'm using .xsessionrc and twm wm and this doesn't work for it: https://github.com/coonrad/FreeBSD-Xfce4-VMware-Install-Guide I'm using VMWare xf86-video-vmware and the above instructions worked for `startxfce4`. Does anyone have suggestions on how to accomplish this or where to debug it? Thanks
