Subject: [9fans] resizing desktops uncer vmware vs. parallels
Date: Sat,  4 Sep 2010 19:25:16 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <642885df1e0a57959d228ec896c9a9dc@gandalf.orthanc.ca> (raw)

For ages I've run diskless terminals under Parallels, and aux/vga would
quite cheerfully resize the Parallels window to match anything I told it.

Recently I had to migrate from Parallels to Fusion.  Resizing doesn't work any more.
Furthermore, I'm buggered if I can programmatically figure out what
combinations of screen size+depth will work in Fusion without making
the terminal instance panic.  The list archives and the wiki are
absent of advice.
