VMWare and openSUSE taskbar!

English Applications

Hi,

I’ve installed openSUSE 11.1 as a guest OS on VMWare workstation 6.5, I noticed that openSUSE 11.1 comes with open-vm-tools so I don’t have to install VMWare tools.

I have my desktop now in the middle of the screen but not fit to the VMWare window (if in full screen mode) so I changed the screen resolution from 800600 to 1024768 and then all is well except for the Taskbar that didn’t take all the screen I don’t know why, even when using VMware tools and not open-vm-tools the same happens

attached is an Image for the desktop.

Use the image tags and an online host like imageshack, flickr etc…

Just install the VMWare tools, they offer far more options and work perfectly compared to the free stuff that comes with opensuse.

Hi all,

I figured it out, it is not the problem of VMWare, it just that tha taskbar is a widget.

I just opened its Panel Settings and configured it to be centered and resized it to take screen width.

thanks all.
