I’m using Fedora 34 inside VMware Workstation 16.1.2 build-17966106.
I like Gnome40, but I can’t change the resolution using wayland because with no xrandr
I got nothing. I’ve tried a lot of methods but nothing worked for me so far. (edid-generator, and some other method), but it didn’t work.
I want to change it to 1920 x 1080 resolution mode. How can I add a custom resolution in wayland?
Could somebody point me in the right direction?

1920x1080 is a standard resolution - it should be available to choose from Display settings as long as the display driver is supporting it.
I guess you can start with checking which Linux graphics driver is best supported under VMWare workstation.
I found all other resolutions in display settings but not the most common one, disappointing…
And where should I start looking? Cause it seems like you know what you’re talking about?!
I’ve kinda found a workaround:
- First time after boot, I log in with on
xorg
and then the resolution just appears and from nowhere, and sets itself to the 1920x1080 res. - Log out cause the
xorg
server is teribile, super slow and whatnot. - Log back in on Wayland and voilla… and just take a snapshot of the VM just in case you wanna come back just instant… the resolution remains in display settings by the way.
