I have it working just fine. There is a tricky process for
installing the VMWare tools ... it seems to copy the installation
files to a temporary virtual floppy disk. Anyway, follow the
installation instructions verbatim and it should work.
The install instructions on my computer are at:
/usr/lib/vmware/help/ToolsInstall.htm
You can also access this from the help button on the virtual
machine.
