All, There are some (very much) testing open-vm-tools RPMS for both the CentOS-4 and CentOS-5 i386 and x86_64 kernel-vm's and standard UP kernels. The kernel-vm's are available here: http://people.centos.org/~tru/kernel-vm/ (The kernel-vm kernels are designed to run inside the VMs at a clock rate of 100HZ instead of 1000Hz.) The open-vm-tools are available here: http://people.centos.org/~hughesjr/open-vm-tools/ The purpose of these RPMS (open-vm-tools) is to replace the VMware-Tools RPMS that come with VMWare. Please remove VMWare-Tools inside the VM if you are going to install these open-vm-tools for testing. There is an xorg.conf file that should be used to replace the one in /etc/X11/ inside the VM Client only (not on your host). The open-vm-tools SHOULD ONLY be installed inside a VM Client and not on the VM Host. These open-vm-tools RPMS are only designed to work with CentOS VM Clients/Guests (should not matter what the host is), though they should also work if RHEL4 or RHEL5 are the VM Clients/Guests. Documentation for the vm tools can be found here: http://open-vm-tools.wiki.sourceforge.net/Packaging and chapter3 here: http://www.vmware.com/pdf/server_vm_manual.pdf (In that PDF file, the installation parts can be ignored, but the configuration parts and usage parts should work) Thanks, Johnny Hughes -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
