VMware Tools pour Debian 6

MAJ 09/01/2011 Afin d'améliorer la gestion des VMware Tools pour les VM Debian, il faut installer les paquets de compilation suivants :

apt-get install autoconf gcc-4.3* make psmisc linux-headers-$(uname -r)

Ensuite, appliquer la procédure suivante :

• Sélectionner le menu Machine virtuelle / Installer VMware Tools
• Monter le cdrom virtuel mount /media/cdrom
• Copier le fichier VMTools dans un répertoire de travail cp /media/cdrom/VMwareTools-8.4.2-261058.tar.gz /usr/local/src
• Se positionner dans le répertoire cd /usr/local/src
• Décompresser le fichier VMTools tar xzf /usr/local/src/VMwareTools-8.4.2-261058.tar.gz
• Se positionner dans le répertoire cd /usr/local/src/vmware-tools-distrib/
• Lancer le script ./vmware-install.pl
• Répondre par défaut aux questions (touche entrée)
• Les VMTools doivent s’installer et le cdrom virtuel se démonte automatiquement.

Voici le résultat complet

root@debian6:/usr/local/src/vmware-tools-distrib# ./vmware-install.pl 
Creating a new VMware Tools installer database using the tar4 format.

Installing VMware Tools.

In which directory do you want to install the binary files? 
[/usr/bin] 

What is the directory that contains the init directories (rc0.d/ to rc6.d/)? 
[/etc] 

What is the directory that contains the init scripts? 
[/etc/init.d] 

In which directory do you want to install the daemon files? 
[/usr/sbin] 

In which directory do you want to install the library files? 
[/usr/lib/vmware-tools] 

In which directory do you want to install the documentation files? 
[/usr/share/doc/vmware-tools] 

The path "/usr/share/doc/vmware-tools" does not exist currently. This program 
is going to create it, including needed parent directories. Is this what you 
want? [yes] 

The installation of VMware Tools 8.4.5 build-332101 for Linux completed 
successfully. You can decide to remove this software from your system at any 
time by invoking the following command: "/usr/bin/vmware-uninstall-tools.pl".

Before running VMware Tools for the first time, you need to configure it by 
invoking the following command: "/usr/bin/vmware-config-tools.pl". Do you want 
this program to invoke the command for you now? [yes] 

Initializing...


Making sure services for VMware Tools are stopped.

Stopping VMware Tools services in the virtual machine:
   Guest operating system daemon:                                      done
   Virtual Printing daemon:                                            done
   Unmounting HGFS shares:                                             done
   Guest filesystem driver:                                            done



Before you can compile modules, you need to have the following installed... 

make
gcc
kernel headers of the running kernel


Searching for GCC...
Detected GCC binary at "/usr/bin/gcc-4.3".
The path "/usr/bin/gcc-4.3" appears to be a valid path to the gcc binary.
Would you like to change it? [no] 

Searching for a valid kernel header path...
Detected the kernel headers of the running kernel at 
"/lib/modules/2.6.32-5-686/build/include".
The path "/lib/modules/2.6.32-5-686/build/include" appears to be a valid path 
to the kernel headers of the running kernel.
Would you like to change it? [no]

The configuration of VMware Tools 8.4.5 build-332101 for Linux for this running
kernel completed successfully.

You must restart your X session before any mouse or graphics changes take 
effect.

You can now run VMware Tools by invoking "/usr/bin/vmware-toolbox-cmd" from the
command line or by invoking "/usr/bin/vmware-toolbox" from the command line 
during an X server session.

To enable advanced X features (e.g., guest resolution fit, drag and drop, and 
file and text copy/paste), you will need to do one (or more) of the following:
1. Manually start /usr/bin/vmware-user
2. Log out and log back into your desktop session; and,
3. Restart your X session.

To use the vmxnet driver, restart networking using the following commands: 
/etc/init.d/networking stop
rmmod pcnet32
rmmod vmxnet
modprobe vmxnet
/etc/init.d/networking start

Enjoy,
