normal user is tux

format your USB using

tazusb format /dev/sda1

create image from current running live ISO

tazusb gen-liveusb /dev/sda1

Now you can try to boot that USB using VMware, if VMware cannot boot it, in vmx file, change or add the following lines.

When ever you make config changes, you need to rebuild rootfs.gz using

tazusb writefs [none|gzip|lzma]

I tried driver version 27.20.100.9025, 27.20.100.8935, 26.20.100.7210 all have the same problem

Symptoms

1. Black Screen with mouse cursor after screen saver / screen wake up after power plan turn off screen, only can fix by restart.

2. The Black Screen Monitor is connected to Intel UHD Graphics 630

2. If press Ctrl+Shift+Windows+B or Windows+E it might flash your desktop back for short seconds and goes back again or might not.

3. If you attach another monitor to Intel UHD Graphics 630, it will also be black with cursor.

4. If you attach another monitor to PEG/PCIE Graphics card, that monitor works fine

5. If you extend desktop with both Intel UHD Graphics 630 and the PEG/PCIE Graphics Card, you will find that when you click on the black screen, actually it works, Windows response to your mouse click when you click on the location start menu or open applications even if it is black.
