Hello, I'm running VMWare Fusion 2 beta and trying to get
open-vm-tools installed in a Fedora 9 VM.

I first tried the download on the main page but ran into the
procps header problem, so I rebuilt the Fedora 8 RPM at
http://www.poolshark.org/dkms-open-vm-tools/
dkms-open-vm-tools-0-1.2008.05.15.fc8.src.rpm   

It seemed to work fine and shows up in "dkms status"...
but I still get "VMware Tools is not installed."  and
copy/paste does not work. Should it?

By the way, Fedora 10 is nearing beta so it would be
great to get this working there too. It's pretty easy for
me to build a livecd iso from the devel tree so if anyone
wants to play with it let me know and I'll put up a
download of a livecd that includes dev tools.

Or, if you're running Fedora, you can build a custom devel
livecd easily by following these instructions:
