Open-VM-Tools v12.0.5 in concert with this release now provides the auto-fit guest resolution feature.

Out of the box now for many bleeding-edge or rolling-release Linux distributions, changes to the open source vmwgfx device drivers which made their way into Linux 5.14 and later provide a smooth ‘vm-driving’ experience while allowing users to change the resolution within the guest.

(note: 3D and OpenGL 4.3 requires 5.19 kernel and Mesa 22.1.1 or greater).

Patches have been upstreamed to address a variety of kernel-related issues, as well as enhancements to the Mesa SVGA graphics driver to bring 3D hardware acceleration and OpenGL 4.3 + GLES 3.1 support to Linux VMs with Mesa 22.1.1 and later. Working with the communities of various operating systems and open source open-source projects such as Mesa, Linux, as well as our own open-vm-tools, we’ve made many enhancements to the Linux on Apple silicon experience. Improved Linux VM Support on Apple Silicon While Windows does not yet ship with our vmxnet3 networking driver for Windows on ARM as it now does for Intel, the VMware Tools ISO on ARM contains the 2 currently supported drivers for graphics and networking. vmxnet3 Networking Drivers for Windows on ARM This WDDM driver allows users to adjust the display setting within Windows to deliver 4K and higher resolutions. To deliver Windows 11 looking as good as it can, we are shipping an early version of our graphics drivers. Well there’s my password… it’s the same one I use on my luggage.

To enhance the new fast encryption model, Fusion can auto-generate a password for the user, and the local keychain is used by default to store the encryption key, relieving the user from having to type it in whenever their VM boots. > Encryption window, or during the New VM walkthrough. Fast Encryption can be enabled for all VM types from the VM Settings. With the new ‘fast encryption’ mode, only the most critical parts of the virtual machine’s local storage space are encrypted, dramatically improving overall VM performance but providing a secure enclave for sensitive data such as a TPM device.

Of course, vTPM device can be added to any VM, but that VM must have either Full or Fast VM encryption enabled. With this release, we have enhanced our Virtual TPM module by incorporating ‘Fast Encryption’, key auto-gen and key storage via Keychain with a TPM 2.0 virtual device profile that is compatible with Windows 11 system requirements. In order to support Windows 11 requirements, a Trusted Platform Module is required. Many new enhancements and capabilities came together to bring Windows 11 to the Mac desktop with Fusion, and while they were designed with Windows 11 in mind, the tools can be used for other VMs as well.

While it is a little early, and things on Apple silicon don’t always behave like we’re used to on Intel, we’re thrilled to be able to share the work we’ve been doing to prepare support for Windows 11 virtual machines on Fusion, for both Intel and Apple silicon Macs.

We know it’s been a long time coming, so we’re happy to be able to finally share a little of what we’ve been working on for the Mac platform.
