Hello. I have trouble getting FreeBSD 14.2 with open-vm-tools to select a resolution greater than 1176x885, the PC monitor has a native resolution of 2560x1440. I've tried making all kinds of setups that can be found on the internet or YouTube. his problem occurs both with gnome, which is the interest I have in using, and in xfce. My last unsuccessful attempt was with this: ` pkg update pkg install -y open-vm-tools pkg install -y xf86-video-vmware pkg install -y xf86-input-vmmouse pkg install -y gdm pkg install -y nano pkg install -y xorg pkg install -y gnome-lite pkg install -y gnome-desktop pkg install -y gedit pkg install -y firefox pkg install -y gnome-terminal pkg install -y gnome-system-monitor sysrc gdm_enable="yes" sysrc dbus_enable="yes" sysrc hald_enable="yes" sysrc gnome_enable="yes" sysrc moused_enable="yes" sysrc vmware_kmod_load="yes" sysrc kld_list+=vmwgfx sysrc vmware_guestd_enable="yes" sysrc vmware_guest_vmxnet_enable="yes" sysrc vmware_guest_vmhgfs_enable="yes" sysrc vmware_guest_vmwgfx_enable="yes" sysrc vmware_guest_vmblock_enable="yes" sysrc vmware_guest_vmmemctl_enable="yes" pw groupmod video -m root pw groupmod wheel -m root if ! grep -q '/proc' /etc/fstab; then echo "proc /proc procfs rw 0 0" >> /etc/fstabfi ... /boot/loader.conf: vmwgfx_load="YES" `
