linux下安装VMtools

1.在VM菜单中选择：VM－>Installs VMwaretools
2. VMware会自动加载一个虚拟光盘，然后打开后里面会有两个文件，其中的vmware-tools-distrib.tar.gz，这就是VMware Tools的Linux安装包。在终端下进入这个文件夹，用“cp /vmware-tools-distrib.tar.gz /tmp”命令即可。
3.接下来应该解压缩vmware-tools-distrib.tar.gz文件。首先进入自己的tmp目录，用“cd /tmp”命令，然后用“tar xzf vmware-tools-distrib.tar.gz”命令将其解压缩，把它释放到同名目录下（即vmware-tools-distrib目录）。 PS：你也可以在图形界面下用鼠标操作步骤2和3，会更直观些。
3. 自己用户名的帐号默认下是没有权限安装VMtools的，要用“su root”切换到root帐号。
4. 然后用“cd vmware-tools-distrib”进入解压后的目录，用“ls”命令显示其下的内容，从中可以看到vmware-install.pl是VMware Tools的安装程序。
5.最后用“./vmware-install.pl”命令来运行该安装程序，然后根据屏幕提示一路回车。到此整个安装过程算是完成了。
6.最后在终端中会显示please choose one of the following display size，然后是一排选项，从640*480到2364*1773 共十几个分辨率的选项，键入你要的分辨率前的数字，然后回车就可以。
