Comment 6 flysideways 2024-03-21 02:58:25 UTC 
The process to add the ~arm64 keyword and enable the vmwgfx video driver is as follows;

Add ~arm64 to the app-emulation/open-vm-tools ebuild

      /var/db/repos/gentoo/app-emulation/open-vm-tools/open-vm-tools-12.2.5.ebuild
      
      KEYWORDS="amd64 ~arm64 x86"

Add ~arm64 to the x11-drivers/xf86-video-vmware ebuild

      /var/db/repos/gentoo/x11-drivers/xf86-video-vmware/xf86-video-vmware-13.4.0.ebuild

      KEYWORDS="amd64 ~arm64 x86"

Add -video_cards_vmware to arm64/use.mask

      /var/db/repos/gentoo/profiles/arch/arm64/use.mask

      # Unmask ARM-only video-cards
      -video_cards_exynos
      -video_cards_freedreno
      -video_cards_lima
      -video_cards_nouveau
      -video_cards_panfrost
      -video_cards_tegra
      -video_cards_v3d
      -video_cards_vc4
      -video_cards_amdgpu
      -video_cards_radeon
      -video_cards_radeonsi
      -video_cards_vmware

In order to enable the vmware-tools service provided by open-vm-tools

      rc-service vmware-tools -v start
      
      rc-update add vmware-tools default
