Vmware linux vmware tools cannot be installed
Ten Steps to Install VMware Tools in Linux is very simple to Install VMware Tools in a windows operating system, as long as the system starts, "VM" → "Install VMware Tools ...", You can install the VMware tool normally. However, in Linux, installing VMware Tools is not that simple. The procedure is as follows: 1. Use the root user to start the Linux system. 2. Install the vmware tools command on a VM on the physical machine. 3. Return to LINUX and enter the following command: #> mount/dev/cdrom/mnt4, continue to enter the command: #> ls the query result of this command is:
One is the rpmpackage file of VMware tools, and the other is the .tar.gz file. Tar.gz installation requires decompression, which is more troublesome than RPM. The following uses the rpm package installation method. 5, continue to enter the command #> cp/mnt/VMwareTools-5.5.1-19175.i386.rpm/tmp (this directory can be self-built) 6. Uninstall the Loaded Optical Drive #> umount/dev/cdrom7, enter the TMP folder #> cd/tmp8, and install the VMwareTools software package. #> Rpm-ivh, mnt, VMwareTools-6.0.2-59824.i386.rpm
(For different versions of vmware, the rpm file name is different and customized according to the actual situation) 9. Set the Resolution #> cd/usr/bin #>. /vmware-config-tools.pl (some versions of vmware here is a vmware-configure-tool.pl, if you can not find this file, go in/usr/bin to find similar files) This step cannot be less, otherwise, vmware will not be able to smoothly switch between the VM and the real machine. After the above command is entered, the result is as follows:
Enter 2 in the resolution setting area (set the display resolution to 800X600). Press enter and the following result is displayed:
Indicates that the resolution is correctly configured. 10. Run the following command: #> service vmware-tools start to start the vmware tools tool. With the above 10 steps, vmware tools can be used. Of course, it takes effect only in the Linux GUI mode, but does not work in the text mode.
