This config line does not seem to be necessary anymore with the latest VMWare and Nvidia driver builds.

However, running VMWare full-screen with twinview (Quadro) on a linux host still does not appear to work. When I try to go full-screen, I get:

Unable to turn on direct graphics.
Failed to switch to full-screen SVGA mode.

I suspect DGA isn't supported with twinview. Any ideas?
