You can change the screen resolution for your Linux guest operating system by rerunning VMware Tools.

To change the display resolution in the guest operating system:

1. Open a Terminal window.
2. Switch to the root user, by running this command:
   
   su - root
   
   
3. Launch the VMware Tools configuration program, by running this command:
   
   vmware-config-tools.pl
   
   
4. Follow the prompts, and make the necessary changes.
5. Close the Terminal window and restart the virtual machine.
   
   

Note: If you prefer, you can edit the X configuration file directly to make the change.
