於Ubuntu(8.04, 8.10, 9.04) 平臺安裝VMware Tools
由於前陣子需要用到unbuntu的平臺來做測試
所以就在小黑身上用VM裝ubuntu的OS
常用VMware的人都知道 要娤VMware Toools滑鼠才能進出自如 包括拖拉檔案(不用再按ctrl+shift)
但是在linux平臺裝下要安VMware Toools 卻不件容易的事 (且安裝程式必須跟kernel相符，否則 VMware Tools 無法成功安裝)
再網路上找了很多方都失敗(踄腳, 缺東缺西的拖拉功能)
最後終於找到有好心人士將檔案重新封裝 提供給大家下載 所以我就節錄起來
先來個中文"極"精簡版
開啟終端機terminal mode 抓shell 並更改權限 再安裝

VMware Tools are not fully compatible with VMware 8.04. To get them working, you can patch them with OpenVM tools. Below is described how to do this automatically.
Open a terminal window and execute the following commands:
$wget http://chrysaor.info/scripts/ubuntu804vmtools.sh
$chmod +x ubuntu804vmtools.sh
Now run the script that makes VMware Tools compatible with Ubuntu 8.04 (Warning: it will download some large files):
$sudo ./ubuntu804vmtools.sh
When the script promps for answers, just hit Enter as defaults are OK. If you’re using VMware Fusion, Server or Workstation, reboot the virtual machine and you are done.
To install VMware Tools on Ubuntu 8.10, you can download and run a script from Chrysaor.info that installs the VMware Tools automatically. Below is described how to do this.
Open a terminal window and execute the following commands:
$wget http://chrysaor.info/scripts/ubuntu810vmtools.sh
$chmod +x ubuntu810vmtools.sh
Now run the script that installs VMware Tools (Warning: it will download a large file):
$sudo ./ubuntu810vmtools.sh
When the script promps for answers, just hit Enter as defaults are OK. If you’re using VMware Fusion, Server or Workstation, reboot the virtual machine and you are done.
To install VMware Tools on Ubuntu 9.04, you can download and run a script from Chrysaor.info that installs the VMware Tools automatically. Below is described how to do this.
Open a terminal window and execute the following command to download the script:
$wget http://chrysaor.info/scripts/ubuntu904vmtools.sh
Now run the script that installs VMware Tools (Warning: it will download some files):
$sudo bash ./ubuntu904vmtools.sh
When the script promps for answers, just hit Enter as defaults are OK. If you’re using VMware Fusion, Server or Workstation, reboot the virtual machine and you are done.
If VMware Tools stopped working, you probably did a kernel upgrade. This makes the tools stop working most times. To get them working again, you have to reconfigure them. Open a terminal window and execute the following command:
$sudo vmware-config-tools.pl -d
Then reboot to make the changes active.
