    I found the vmware driver
    I copy the /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xorg.conf.eg in
    /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xorg.conf and change the Driver from vga to vmware

    activate the line

    BusID "PCI:0:15:0"

    startx failed

    (==) Using config file: "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xorg.conf"
    (EE) No devices detected
