Vmware fusion black screen12/21/2023 ![]() ![]() Unfortunately I hadn't set up remote telnet access, so using Putty with or without SSH doesn't seem to work. The web site I'm developing appears to be working and my SMB shares are working. A purple screen with the dots being filled in An underline, at which I can type stuff but doesn't appear to do anythingģ. I decided I was going to take a snapshot because I've made some progress, but decided to do it after rebooting to take the update into account.Ģ. I didn't reboot straight after the updates, I carried on with what I was doing. I can also confirm that the initial flickering occurs exactly when the VMWare tools icon appears in the system tray.I have been using Ubuntu in a VM for months without any issues, and when I first booted up today it told me there were updates and went ahead. Win 10 VM without installed VMWare tools do not show this flickering, at least for me. No changing wallpapers, just monochrome ones used together with Wininternals BGInfo. I tried both Settings, but the behaviour does not change. The flickering occurs regardless if 3D Acceleration is turned on for those VM or not. There is always an initial flickering as shown in your video shortly after the user profile has loaded and the desktop shows up.Īfter this initial flickering/blackening I also encounter relatively regular consecutive screen flickerings, just the period for me seems to be longer than 10 minutest (more 30 up to 45 mins for me).Īs I use those VM for software development this is really annoying, because especially when I extend the VM to my two displays, the flickering affects windows positions and screen focus is often shifted.This regularly leads to typos or wrongly positioned controls, when designing Winforms Apps. I have exactly the same, really annoying problem with all my Win 10 VM's (with installed VMWare tools, in my case 10.305) after upgrading to Workstation 15. I did install VMware Tools 10.3.2 before when I still had Fusion 8.5.10 and Workstation 12.5.9 but I can't say with certainty that the flickering didn't occur as it could be that I just didn't notice it. | vmx| I125: DnDCP: set guest controllers to version 4 | vmx| I125: DnDCP: dndGuestVersion from vmdb failed, setting to 4 | vcpu-1| I125: GuestRpc: Channel 1, guest application toolbox-dnd. | vcpu-1| W115: GuestRpc: application toolbox-dnd, changing channel 65535 -> 1 | vmx| I125: Guest: toolbox-dnd: Version: 10. | vmx| I130: PolicyVMX_IsDragDropAllowed: Drag/drop policy is allowed. | vmx| I130: ToolsGetCopyPaste: Copy/paste allowed: 0. | vmx| I130: PolicyVMX_IsCopyPasteAllowed: Copy/paste policy is allowed. I turned on debug and the flicker time roughly coincides with certain VMware log entries in relation to VMware Tools. I also noticed that the the flicker happens just before the VMware Tools icon appear on the notification area. ![]() This led me to think it might not be related to the VMware SVGA 3D graphics driver during power-up of the VM. I then tried just a sign-out and sign-in again and the flicker still occured. I changed the hardware compatibility on the Fusion Windows 10 VM back to 12 and switched back to OpenGL and the flickering still occured. ![]() It also seems to happen only on the Windows 10 VM (not on a macOS VM and Linux VM). Considering that it the flicker also happens on Fusion, it led me to think it isn't the host graphics hardware or host graphics framework (Fusion 11 uses Metal by default while Workstation on Windows uses DX11 and the graphics hardware I have are very different Intel Pro 5200 on the MacBook Pro while Nvidia on Windows host). ![]()
