I just compiled / installed the 8.8.0 release manually on a Fedora 15 VM and both features (clipboard sync and display resizing) seem to work as intended. I haven't had the time to test the development snapshot, but I don't expect much to have changed (I remember testing it a couple of months ago and it worked as expected too). If the Debian guys are packaging things correctly (and you have the vmware-user-suid-wrapper command automatically execute when you log in to your X session), then things should work. Check whether you have an instance of the "vmtoolsd" process running as your logged in user to make sure. -- - Marcelo ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure contains a definitive record of customers, application performance, security threats, fraudulent activity and more.
