OpenSuse Leap 15.3 vmware guest screen cut off

Hello fellows,

I hope I post in right section as I'm using a Windows host.

So, I use workstation pro 16 on windows 10 host and have created opensuse leap 15.3 guest.

The other day, I played around with resolution/font setting in the kde display and font settings , because font looks smaller in the guest than in the host for the default 1920x1080.

Anyway, now after I started up my opensuse, the screen is broken (screen shot provided).

Even after I use boot safe mode from opensuse iso. The command line screen is cut and can't get around to do setting,etc.

Anybody knows how to get back to default resolution for the opensuse guest?

thank you

Probably this is windows host thing. I get this issue after windows update and happen to other guest also (Fedora 35) when running guest installation setup.

Try hitting Ctrl+Alt+F3, login as your bad user and issue command to reset Plasma settings to default:

Code:

rm -rf ~/.kde4

Then hit Ctrl+Alt+F7 to log back into graphical, or go back to graphical if you've enabled autologin.
