I was able to compile and install the complete set of tool on Fedora 11. There is 1 problem remaining. According to the docs a vmblock should be installed as a kernel module and it should be visible in /proc/fs/vmblock containing 2 nodes dev and mountPoint. I do not get these nodes. After a first installation, When I dragged a file from the Windows XP host to the VMWare workstation 6.5 running Fedora 11 as a client, I got an error message. When I clicked retry, the file was copied. So I did a second installation, and now drag and drop does not work at all any more.
I can mount the host file system under /mnt/hgfs and clipboard copy and paste also works from the host to the client. So parts of the installation are OK. -- Erich Neuwirth, University of Vienna Faculty of Computer Science Computer Supported Didactics Working Group Visit our SunSITE at http://sunsite.univie.ac.at Phone: +43-1-4277-39464 Fax: +43-1-4277-39459 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Crystal Reports - New Free Runtime and 30 Day Trial Check out the new simplified licensing option that enables unlimited royalty-free distribution of the report engine for externally facing server and web deployment. http://p.sf.net/sfu/businessobjects _______________________________________________ open-vm-tools-devel mailing list open-vm-tools-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/open-vm-tools-devel
