I am in the same position, but quite frankly I am giving up on this. I'm just somewhat annoyed that Canonical decided to kill off the open-vm- tools package that I know to be working just fine, at least with VMware ESX 3.0.x.
fadyek: The fix I posted does have ESX-esque naming conventions for the modules. The fact of the matter is, I have a feeling that if you try open-vm-tools (maybe get it off packages.debian.org, because ubuntu killed their for some reason, even though they used to have it... no vlue as to why!), I have a feeling it will work. Since you're using VirtualBox, I'm not sure if you still want to try this for the purposes of experimentation... :) -- vmware tools dont compile with hardy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/188391 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
