在VMware下安装Ubuntu，那么必须安装VMware-tools，才能获得更好的体验，包括屏幕分辨率、声音、和windows共享剪贴板等等。
1、点击VMware菜单的-VM-Install VMware Tools
这时，在Ubuntu下会自动加载Linux版的VMware Tools的安装光盘镜像。你会看到虚拟机的桌面上出现了一个名为VMware Tools的光盘图标，并且被自动打开。
其中包括VMwareTools-xxx-i386.rpm和VMwareTools- xxx.tar.gz两个文件。
如果你双击那个 rpm 文件，会提示说不支持的软件包，因为 rpm 是为 RedHat 准备的安装包，我们需要的是 .tar.gz 那个。
2、把 .tar.gz 文件拷贝而到桌面，右键菜单-解压缩到此处。会自动解压为一个 vmware-tools-distrib 目录。
打开终端(系统的应用程序菜单-附件-终端)
3、然后在终端里面执行以下命令行：
$ cd Desktop(要是中文的就是 $ cd 桌面)
$ cd vmware-tools-distrib
$ sudo ./vmware-install.pl
4、回车之后提示输入管理员密码，然后一路确认回车后(相当于在Windows里安装软件时所填答的诸多对话框，我们这里均采用缺省设置)，直到最后出现“Enjoy----the VMware team”的字样后，VMwareTools终于安装完成了。

The configuration of VMware Tools 6.5.0 build-118166 for Linux for this running
kernel completed successfully.
You must restart your X session before any mouse or graphics changes take
effect.
You can now run VMware Tools by invoking the following command:
"/usr/bin/vmware-toolbox" during an X server session.
To enable advanced X features (e.g., guest resolution fit, drag and drop, and
file and text copy/paste), you will need to do one (or more) of the following:
1. Manually start /usr/bin/vmware-user
2. Log out and log back into your desktop session; and,
3. Restart your X session.
To use the vmxnet driver, restart networking using the following commands:
/etc/init.d/networking stop
rmmod pcnet32
rmmod vmxnet
modprobe vmxnet
/etc/init.d/networking start
If the virtual printer feature is enabled, you will need to restart the CUPS
service to make use of this feature.
这个试过了，我已经安装成功了。安装好了关机再开机就行了，好像重启不行！

看着麻烦，只不过是移动到/usr/local/src/ 目录下，然后解压。然后执行里面*.pl 文件，然后一路 enter 即可！
