That's definitely not expected. vmtoolsd nor its dependent libraries need X. It might be a problem with Debian's packaging. To be sure, I'd need: . list of plugins under $datadir/open-vm-tools/plugins/vmsvc . output of "ldd vmtoolsd" . output of "ldd libvmtools.so" I'm pretty sure the vmtoolsd / libvmtools code don't ever call GTK functions, but some of the plugins do (and these shouldn't be deployed in the "vmsvc" container). -- - Marcelo ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Throughout its 18-year history, RSA Conference consistently attracts the world's best and brightest in the field, creating opportunities for Conference attendees to learn about information security's most important issues through interactions with peers, luminaries and emerging and established companies. http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsaconf-dev2dev _______________________________________________ open-vm-tools-devel mailing list open-vm-tools-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/open-vm-tools-devel
