It seems that the emulators/open-vm-tools is broken. After deinstalling it and installing it again, whenever I run '/usr/local/etc/rc.d/vmware-guestd start' or reboot the virtual machine, then there is an error about a missing /usr/local/sbin/vmware-checkvm. I do have a vmware-checkvm, but it is in /usr/local/bin/, so a 'ln -s /usr/local/bin/vmware-checkvm /usr/local/sbin/vmware-checkvm' fixed the problem.
Also, the mouse is only able to seamlessly integrate with the host machine when the vmmouse driver is used. When I had emulators/vmware-tools6 installed, it would work even with the generic mouse driver (which I would prefer to use). Also, there seems to be some features of vmware-tools/open-vm-tools missing. If I add a shared folder in VMware, then I am not able to access it through /mnt/hgfs even after I run vmware-hgfsclient as root. I am also not able to drag and drop files between the host and guest machines, even though I am able to pass the mouse through each seamlessly. (But I had these same problems when using emulators/vmware-tools6...) _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
