[TriLUG] Mandrake 10.1 from DVD iso on virtual machine and videohe!!

I saw the same thing with Suse. It cleared up after installing the vmware tools and editing the X config files.  I had to do it remotely using ssh to the vmware session.

I'm beating my head against the wall with Mandrake 10.1 and video.  With all defaults during installation, I get a command prompt instead of GUI.  The GUI looks aliased on 4 quadrants of the monitor.

Anyone seen this behavior or know what to do about it?  Use a real PC instead of VM?  I dunno.  I give.

Mandrake Club, bittorrent and distribution rock.  If I could just get it to work, I'd be real happy.
