Hello.
I have trouble getting FreeBSD 14.2 with open-vm-tools to select a resolution greater than 1176x885, the PC monitor has a native resolution of 2560x1440.

I've tried making all kinds of setups that can be found on the internet or YouTube.

his problem occurs both with gnome, which is the interest I have in using, and in xfce.

My last unsuccessful attempt was with this:

`
pkg update

pkg install -y open-vm-tools
pkg install -y xf86-video-vmware
pkg install -y xf86-input-vmmouse

pkg install -y gdm
pkg install -y nano
pkg install -y xorg

pkg install -y gnome-lite
pkg install -y gnome-desktop

pkg install -y gedit
pkg install -y firefox
pkg install -y gnome-terminal
pkg install -y gnome-system-monitor

sysrc dbus_enable="yes"

sysrc vmware_kmod_load="yes"

sysrc kld_list+=vmwgfx

pw groupmod video -m root
pw groupmod wheel -m root

if ! grep -q '/proc' /etc/fstab; then
echo "proc /proc procfs rw 0 0" >> /etc/fstabfi
