Unlock MacOS // Restore VM resolution

Hello!

After trialing Parallels I decided to purchase. Of course there was something I didn't test and I hope someone can assist.

I run Fedora KDE Plasma ARM in a VM. I've configured it to open when I login to my Mac and remember the screen and position. It opens full screen on my external display. It works beatifully.

When I lock my Mac and come back later, I unlock it and the VM is restored to its previous state. Im not sure if it was suspended, not sure how I can see that. But when I login to Fedora, the resolution is really low. When I go to Display Settings the native resolution is no longer there. I need to exit full screen, enter full screen, then I can change it back to native.

This is a real hassle every time and I hope there's a solution somehow.
 
This sounds like a display detection issue after the VM is restored from lock/suspend. Make sure Parallels Tools are installed and up to date in Fedora, and check whether the VM is being suspended when your Mac locks. If the problem only occurs after unlocking, it may be a Parallels display driver issue with Fedora ARM. Which Parallels and Fedora versions are you using?

The issue has been resolved by reinstalling Parallels Tools inside the VM and by reconfiguring MacOS Mission Control to give each physical display its own separate space.
