Sles 9 2 to 4 split screen when switching to text mode in VMserver 1

I have been having an issue with SLES 9.

 

 

Whenever I switch to text only mode via ctrlaltf1 , the screen splits into 2 to 4 duplicate screens and the color becomes a bit off.

 

 

I have read that this is an issue with the svga driver that comes with sles 9, and have tried the solution posted at the top of this discussion here http://communities.vmware.com/message/311709?tstart=0

 

 

I did not do a text install, so I am trying to change this after the fact.

 

 

If I change my runlevel to 3 and boot in text mode that way things are ok.

 

 

 

 

 

Does anyone know how to resolve this? I have heard changing the host and guest color depths may resolve this, which I can try but it would be ideal for me to be able to leave them as is.

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks.
