In the long run, VMware virtualization technology can help you cut operational costs, reduce your footprint, optimize resource consumption, and much more. This abstraction layer allows you to run multiple virtual machines (VMs) simultaneously while sharing the same hardware resources. With its advanced hypervisor technology, you can isolate different operating systems (OSs) and applications from the underlying physical hardware.

No, I'm not struggling using vmware at all I just wanted to know how to install vmware tools on Linux but if it isn't needed then there's no need for me to stress myself about trying to install it on my vmware player.
Vmware tools download linux iso Patch#
I don't have any idea about what the patch is supposed to do either that I just included that link as example of the various tutorials I've found. I have win xp and win 7, several versions of mint and other linux's working really well on Virtual box.
I seem to remember ( things may have changed) that there was a install.sh ( or something like that) on the isoĪs you are struggling to use vmware you might find Virtual box easer to use. Picture 4 of your link shows that the iso is mounted in the virtual machine and that it is available to the guest OS (mint). You dont need to use the tools on mint when its a guest OS in virtual box.

I've unzipped it to the desktop and then tried installing it using the various sudo commands for vmware but nothing works. Well, when I've attempted to install vmware tools I see that it's showing up in LinuxMint KDE's in/on the cdrom. You say that you don't mount the iso in the virtual machine it runs in the vmware program. VEM: Patch bundle for Cisco Nexus Virtual Ethernet Module for ESX/ESXi ESXi: Patch bundle for ESX Embedded and Installable isual.htmlbut nothing is working and as far as the vmware patch that doesn't seem to be for vmware but instead for the following: I've search and found numerous instructions case and point this tutorial. The problem I'm having is trying to install vmware tools. What ISO are you talking about downloading? Vmware tools?
Okay so the previous information was for virtualplayer I got that part. clear as mud, I know but google should help. You do not mount the iso in the virtual machine - it runs in the the vmware prog. I seem to remember that its roughly the same, download the iso and point the virtual cd device at the iso. Usbtux wrote:Sorry, I gave you info for virtual box which is not vmwareplayer. Once I clicked on "install vmware tools" and go to Dolphin I see the CDrom under the "Devices" heading in that folder and although I can add the folder to the desktop I can't add the CD/DVD icon to the desktop nor can I found the actual software. I think "Dolphin" is the linuxmint version of "My Computer" which I've managed to add to the desktop. I have figured out how to add the various icons to the desktop or at least some of them. I installed AcetoneISO but the vmwaretools is still only showing up in the CD/DVD software of the VMware(vmware toolbar at the top of the vmware virtual machine) and that is NOT showing up on the desktop. I'm sure there's something similar in kde.Īre you saying that I need to download a CDrom? If so the only things I see in software manager are AcetoneISO and gmountISO.
Icons - in cinnamon they are toggled in cinnamon settings>desktop. Usbtux wrote:You need to download them via, devices>install guest additions it should then be available via devices>/cd/dvd devices and it should auto run.
