Question about autofit guest in Workstation 8

I've just installed workstation 8 today. The only annoying thing that I have found so far is that the autofit guest feature does not automatically adjust the guest resolution during bootup but works when I re-size the window(linux guests). I didn't have this issue with Workstation 7. Anyone else experiencing similar issues?

Haven't noticed it... did you update the tools on the guest?

I just tried a Windows guest and I'm having the same issue.

I just installed VMware workstation 8 on my desktop and I don't have this issue, strange.

UPDATE: I spoke too soon, I'm now having issues with it installed on my desktop.

I've ran in to this issue the odd time with 8. If I use the menu option to "Fit guest now" it will go along with when I resize but on boot it will not resize. I haven't found a cause/solution yet.

This has happened on both machines built in 7 and upgraded as well as fresh install in 8.

The issue appears to now be fixed in Version 8.0.1.
