Installing VMware tools
VMware tools allows you to sync your virtual machine, run scripts on stopping, and do a few other things. What's missing, seemingly, is the ability to use the mouse without capturing focus first. As of now, there is no .deb available, so run the following commands:
sudo apt-get install build-essential sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`
The vmtools rely on the config.h header file, which does not exist anymore with recent kernels. As a workaround, you'll have to create a dummy file:
sudo touch /usr/src/linux-headers-`uname -r`/include/linux/config.h
Now you’ll want to navigate to the VM \ Install VMware Tools menu within your virutal machine This will mount the vmware tools in Ubuntu so that you can begin the install. To install the tools, copy the .tar.gz to your desktop. Right-click it and "extract here". Now open a terminal and type
sudo ./Desktop/vmware<tab>/vmware-install.pl -d"
- (please note the <tab> means to actually hit the tab key to enable autocomplete to finish the foldername).
Reboot your virtual machine when finished. After rebooting, you can run vmware tools config
vmware-toolbox
- Also note that vmware-toolbox has to be running for the mouse to be able to jump back and forth between the guest os and host os without hitting ctrl+alt. This is not ideal, but you could use 'alltray' to get the vmware-toolbox to the tray instead of the taskbar. It's also GTK1... bleh!
