In that case, see if glxgears and glxinfo work and use your GPU. If that works you can just force vulkan off. mks.enableX11Presentation=TRUE mks.enableVulkanPresentation=FALSE Performance won’t be as good but if you don’t want to fix vulkan it is an alternative option. Not sure about openSuse and the config file, however.

First, ensure Vulkan actually works on your system. You can run vkcube for example. What worked for me was to add the following to  my ~/.vmware/config: mks.forceDiscreteGPU = "TRUE" As it was defaulting to using the CPU, for which I did not have the vulkan libs. You might also have some luck with this, although I'd only try it if the above doesn't work. mks.vk.allowUnsupportedDevices = "TRUE"

Host: Debian based Linux (6.1.0) Guest: Windows 10 VMware: Workstation Pro 17.0.2 Issue: VMWare Workstation (or vmtools) fails to copy additional mime-types between host and guest, in either direction. Details / desired outcome: I would expect RTF / HTML formatted text (for example, copied from a webpage or Word) to be copied between host and guest. Using the InsideClipboard tool, we can see that if I copy text from a webpage in Windows, the following formats are available within Windows' clipboard: However, in my host, only the following formats are available: TIMESTAMP TARGETS MULTIPLE STRING text/plain UTF8_STRING COMPOUND_TEXT Similarly, copying from Firefox in Linux (host), the following formats are available: TIMESTAMP TARGETS MULTIPLE SAVE_TARGETS text/html text/_moz_htmlcontext text/_moz_htmlinfo UTF8_STRING COMPOUND_TEXT TEXT STRING text/plain;charset=utf-8 text/plain text/x-moz-url-priv But in Windows (guest), only the CF_UNICODETEXT is available. This is despite VMWare claiming that RTF/HTML Formated text is copied between host and guest: Copying and pasting plain text and formatted text (including the formatting) is restricted to amounts less than 4MB.
