Public bug reported:

My host system is Win7 64bit. My notebook has 1920x1080 native
resolutions. I’m running VMWare Workstation 8 for desktop
virtualization. Today I’ve installed Ubuntu 12.04 Beta2 as a guest. I
was unable to set 1920x1080 resolution on the guest side. The gnome-
control-center display command offered me a lot of other resolutions,
but 1920x1080.

I’ve also installed the vmware-tools, because I assumed the absence of that 
tool is the problem. However I’ve had to realize the problem still exist after 
a successful vmware-tools installation. (Yep, I did a reboot after the 
installation.)
I have to say my Ubuntu 11.10 works like a charm, so for that version the 
1920x1080 not a problem at all.

If you need more information to fix this problem, I’m glade to help you.
