[Bug 1339768] Re: VMWare graphics driver regression

 

According to this:
http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=1003746

The latest virtual hardware version is 10, while 7 corresponds to VMWare
Workstatio 8.x (the version I used to create the VM).
