utp Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 I have a strange problem here to solve. Following by post, ESXi 5 Mac OS X Unlocker http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/267296-esxi-5-mac-os-x-unlocker/ Graphics Acceleration in ESXi 5.1 and OS X Mountain Lion VM http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/285733-graphics-acceleration-in-esxi-51-and-os-x-mountain-lion-vm/ I am able to get OSX 10.8.3(.4) working on ESXi 5.1 server, it works great on a Dual L5520 Xeon setup with 24GB RAM and a ATI HD6570 passthru. The problem I have about OSX inside VM is on vmware / ESXi, the default option (cannot be remove) svga hardware exist, resulting in a "virtual dual monitor" in OSX. This unwanted display slows down video performance with in OSX a lot. I try removing kext from VMWare on the vm-video device, no luck, and in OSX there seems to be no way I can "disable" the display, tried the bootflag hack also with no luck. Is there anyway either in OSX or ESXi-wise a user can "Disable" the default build in Video emulation? Thanks a million. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donk Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 No it is part of the VMware "virtual chasis" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Moves Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 Searching for an answer to this question is hard. Anyways, there has to be a way to disable the included VMware Console Screen? I'll continue to look, will update if I find something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Moves Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 Basically, the solution I found was to use SwitchResX, and use their "Display Sets" function so I could setup two different setups for my Monitors. One would be my main monitor, and a certain quick key to enable. The other would be the backup solution, which contains only the VMware Console.
