I’ve just started to play about with the new Ubuntu (7.10 - Gutsy), I have to say that I quite like it - I was a big fan of Feisty and all other Ubuntu releases previously, so this is more of the same good stuff.
As I’m working with VMWare Fusion, the first thing that needs to be done is install the VMWare Tools. This is quite simply done with the following lines in the terminal once you have started your VM and mounted the tools image (Virtual Machine > Install VMWare Tools in the menu):
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 | sudo aptitude update sudo aptitude install build-essential linux-headers-$(uname -r) cp -a /media/cdrom/VMwareTools* /tmp/ cd /tmp/ tar -vxzf VMwareTools*.gz cd vmware-tools-distrib/ sudo ./vmware-install.pl |
The just accept all of the defaults for the installation package.
Cheers to Ubuntu Tutorials for the info.
I am running win xp with vmware workstation and gutsy as guest os but it doesn’t work for me. The …Tools*.gz files are no where to be found. In fact, there is no …Tool*.gz file on the mounted cdrom. I checked using file browser so I know there isn’t one. What am I missing?
Sorry, but i’ve no idea on that one - i’m using VMware Fusion on a Mac, they’re slightly different products.
You could try taking a look at the info here, or post a question on the VMware Forum.
An alternative (if you get nowhere with the above) might be to try a pre-configured Ubuntu VM with the vmware tools already installed.
Install VMware tools is an option on the VMware Server Console.
