[fireball] 28976: - HACK: Create a missing VRefresh key when installing VMWare's video driver. This solution was proposed long time ago by Herve Poussineau and very recently by Gregor Brunmar. Now VMWare's video driver finally can work as expected, resolution setting works also (tested up to 1400x1050). - TODO: VRefresh key is absent in the installation .inf, and should be somehow either ignored, or created by something else (not the installer).

- HACK: Create a missing VRefresh key when installing VMWare's video driver. This
solution was proposed long time ago by Herve Poussineau and very recently by Gregor
Brunmar. Now VMWare's video driver finally can work as expected, resolution setting
works also (tested up to 1400x1050).
- TODO: VRefresh key is absent in the installation .inf, and should be somehow either
ignored, or created by something else (not the installer).
