[Bug 496415] [NEW] Lucid: Low Graphics mode only available as vmware guest

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

With vmware 7 as host, tried installing Lucid (as guest os) separately
using desktop iso, alternate iso, and using dist-upgrade from Karmic.
All situations result in allowing only low graphics mode as the vmware
display driver will not initialize. Tried reinstalling the vmware
display driver package but it did not help.
