ArchLinux安裝開源VMware Tools

首先按照傳統的Linux下安裝VMware Tools的方法[1]]出現了不少的錯誤,安裝過程徹底沒有辦法進行下去.我在ArchLinux Wiki中看到這樣一句說:VMware Tools for linux exists in 2 forms: the official VMware Tools and Open-VM-Tools. VMware Tools is based on a stable snapshot of Open-VM-Tools. Open-VM-Tools contains more experimental code and features.The official VMware Tools are not available for Archlinux.

從上面這段話中得知:官方的VMware Tools不能用於Archlinux(紅色標註),咱們應該安裝Open-VM-Tools,好了有了方向,咱們開始咱們的安裝之路.

詳細參考上面的連接!

1.安裝VMware Tools

 

pacman -S open-vm-tools open-vm-tools-modules

2.安裝gtkmm  pacman -S gtkmm

3.修復Tools中的60秒BUG

 nano /usr/lib/systemd/system/vmtoolsd.service

在[service]項的後面增長一行    KillSignal=SIGKILL

 

4.使vmware tools開機自啓動

 cat /proc/version > /etc/arch-release systemctl start vmtoolsd systemctl enable vmtoolsd 5.重啓,在虛擬機操做面板上選擇查看->自動調整大小.
