VMware Fusion 2.0

Working with VMware Fusion 1.x version was always exciting, but the absence of a good video device was still missing. Can't play games, no Compiz-Fusion.

Upgraded to Vmware 2.0. It provides a 128 MB display device but only to Windows XP and Vista virtual machines. Now I can play most of the games in Windows VM. They have also improved mouse control and its speed while playing games, which is very bad in older version.

But it does not provides same device while installing/working on Linux Systems. It still detect old VGA adapter where I can't even enable desktop effects.

It would have been great if Vmware fusion developers can provide a good display adapters for linux kind of operating systems. I know many people are out there and wishing for the same.

Good Luck!
