I dont know if it is the same problem, but VMware in linux fullscreen had
graphic problems. It had to do with having a software cursor, so things
didn't get redrawn properly below where the cursor had passed. My
solution was not to use VMWare in full screen. I don't know if you are
having the same problem. This was
a long time ago. Then I started using VMware under windows.
Nowadays I use qemu with kqemu.
