如何安装Linux下的VMwareTools.
1.安装工具。让虚拟机运行于窗口状态，不要全屏，按Ctrl+Alt让鼠标释放出来。在VMware的菜单栏上选择"虚拟机/安装虚拟机工具(VM/Install VMware Tools...)"。然后切换到客户操作系统，即Linux。
2.挂载光盘。
# mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
3.执行命令。进入虚拟光盘，可以看到有两个文件，一个是压缩包，一个为rpm包。直接运行rpm包安装，命令行也可。rpm -Uvh VMwareTools-版本号-版本号.i386.rpm
# cd /mnt/cdrom
# ls -l
有两上文件 ：
VMwareTools-5.5.1-19175.i386.rpm
VMwareTools-5.5.1-19175.tar.gz
并把这两个文件拷贝到你的文件下 如 /tmp
#cp VMwareTools-5.5.1-19175.tar.gz /tmp
#cp VMwareTools-5.5.1-19175.i386.rpm /tmp
#cd /tmp
#rpm -ivh VMwareTools-5.5.1-19175.i386.rpm
4.上述操作完成后，进入/usr/bin目录，查找vmware-config-tools.pl.找到后，运行它。
5.一路回车
6. #tar -xzvf VMwareTools-5.5.1-19175.tar.gz
#cd vmware-tools-distrib
#./vmware-install.pl
Creating a new installer database using the tar3 format.
Installing the content of the package.
# 安装过程的画面，全部使用默认值，一直按 Enter 就对了

虚拟机毕竟是虚拟机.很多错误解释不了的!
软件毕竟是软件.毕竟是不稳定的东西!
把错误截出来把,大家一起解决.

你用的不会是精简版吧。用原版VMware

进Linux的光驱看看有没有VMware tools这个东东。我在Fedora里也装不上，但后来看见这光驱里有这个东东.

我用的也是红旗桌面版6.0，也是用VMware虚拟机安装上了，同样是VMware tools安装不上。请使用红旗linux的高手帮忙啊。

看看你们的系统里面是否有LINUX的内核文件一般在/usr/src下面。安装vmware-tools 需要一个GCC 编译器还需要源码文件。最好把错误的信息贴出来。如果是ARCHlinux还需要更改rc.d的格式
