How to troubleshoot virtual machine installation CentOS is not able to display full screen problems

Sometimes in order to learn Linux, you need to test the installation on the virtual machine. However, after the installation is complete, there are two common problems: one is the time and clock out of sync problem. This can lead to many problems in development, such as the Makefile file will cause some unnecessary duplication of compilation, and even some programs refuse to compile. Second, the virtual machine can not be full-screen, operation process also feel inconvenient.

The specific method is to install Vmware-tools in the CentOS system, with the following steps:

1. Start the CentOS (graphical interface login) and log in as an administrator.
2. In the VMware Virtual Machine menu, click on: Virtual machines, install VMware Tools->install.

3.CentOS automatically mounts virtual optical drives for VMware tools and displays them on the desktop.

4. In the virtual CD-ROM of VMware Tools, copy the vmwaretools-5.5.1-19175.tar.gz to the/tmp directory.

5. Go into the/tmp directory and extract the vmwaretools-5.5.1-19175.tar.gz to the current directory to generate the Vmware-tools-distrib folder.

6. Enter the Vmware-tools-distrib directory after decompression
[Root@localhost ~]# Cd/tmp
[Root@localhost ~tmp]# CD Vmware-tools-distrib

7. Perform vmware-install.pl installation of VMware TOOLS8.
Input:./vmware-install.pl (execute vmware-install.pl file).
8. Then "enter" and sometimes prompt for [yes]
