vmware修改oracle linux分辨率
oracle版linux主要是作为服务器操作系统使用的，他的可视化配置很坑爹，无法单纯的通过 vmware-config-tools.pl 脚本实现修改
问题重现
尝试使用 vmware-config-tools.pl 脚本修改分辨率：
[root@enmoedu2 oracle]# vmware-config-tools.pl

You must restart your X session before any mouse or graphics changes take
effect.
To enable advanced X features (e.g., guest resolution fit, drag and drop, and
file and text copy/paste), you will need to do one (or more) of the following:
1. Manually start /usr/bin/vmware-user
2. Log out and log back into your desktop session
3. Restart your X session.
to use the vmxnet driver, either reboot or
1. stop networking or stop any interface using the vmxnet or pcnet32 driver
2. remove the pcnet32 module with 'rmmod pcnet32'
3. remove the vmxnet module with 'rmmod vmxnet'
4. load the vmxnet module with 'modprobe -v vmxnet'
5. and restart networking or restart the stopped network interfaces

问题解决
只能去强制修改xorg.conf文件：
[root@enmoedu1 ~]# vim /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0"
Device "VMware SVGA"
Monitor "vmware"
# Don't specify DefaultColorDepth unless you know what you're
# doing. It will override the driver's preferences which can
# cause the X server not to run if the host doesn't support the
# depth.
Subsection "Display"
# VGA mode: better left untouched
Depth 4
Modes "640x480"
ViewPort 0 0
EndSubsection
将640x480改为1280x800
再reboot即可
