vmware workstation6.5安装linux问题

lovelangzi

我使用的是vmware workstation6.5 ,在上面安装了linux FC6虚拟系统,可是我每次使用后都按CTRL+ALT组合键才能把鼠标释放出来,不过我上面安的windows xp虚拟系统后,只要安装一下vmware tools后就不需按CTRL+ALT组合键了,我已在linux FC6上安装了vmware tools了,可是还必须按CTRL+ALT组合键才能把鼠标释放出来,这是为什么啊,哪位同仁遇到过同样的问题,请指教,谢谢!!!

这个问题我给解决了,是按照vmware的帮助文档做的,我把它发出来供遇到同样问题的朋友参考:
Install VMware Tools on a Linux Guest Within X by Using the RPM Installer
You can use a graphical user interface to install VMware Tools in a Linux guest. For information about how to install VMware Tool from the command line, see Install VMware Tools from the Command Line with the tar or RPM Installer.
Before you begin, make sure the virtual machine is powered on and the guest operating system is running.
To install VMware Tools on a Linux Guest Within X by Using the RPM Installer
1  On the host, choose VM > Install VMware Tools.
If an earlier version of VMware Tools is installed, the menu item is Update VMware Tools.
The guest operating system mounts the VMware Tools installation virtual CD. A window manager displaying two files might appear. One file is for the RPM installer and one is for the tar installer. Alternatively, a VMware Tools CD icon might appear on the desktop.
2  Do one of the following:
? If you see a VMware Tools CD icon on the desktop, double-click it, and after it opens, double-click the RPM installer in the root of the CD-ROM.
? If you see a file manager window, double-click the RPM installer file.
In some Linux distributions, the VMware Tools CD icon might fail to appear. In this case, install VMware Tools from the command line.
3  When prompted, enter the root password and click OK.
The installer prepares the packages.
4  Click Continue when the installer presents a dialog box that shows Completed System Preparation.
When the installer is done, no confirmation window or finish button appears, but VMware Tools is installed.
5  In an X terminal, as root (su), run the following file to configure VMware Tools:
vmware-config-tools.pl
Respond to the questions the command-line wizard displays on the screen. Press Enter to accept the default value.
6  Exit from the root account.
exit
7  In an X terminal, to start the VMware User process, enter the following command:
vmware-user
8  To start the VMware Tools control panel, enter the following command:
vmware-toolbox &
