Comment 8 Dax Kelson 2014-07-14 05:15:02 UTC
vmware-svga provides low resource yet high resolutions (> 1024x768) displays without any xorg.conf on R6 guest machines. This is a regression from RHEL6. Please re-enable it.

Here is another reason why you should re-enable vmware-svga.

Ubuntu is not a supported guest on RHEL.
