Debian5 VMware Tools的安装

1、安装VMware Tools时弹出    The guest operating system has locked the CD-ROM door and is probably using the CD-ROM, which can prevent the guest from recognizing media changes. If possible, eject the CD-ROM from inside the guest before disconnecting.
Disconnect anyway (and override the lock)?
yes no

先要删除虚拟机操作系统上的guest用户，同时弹出目前的光盘；否则会报被锁定；

2、安装psmisc
   apt-get install psmisc
3、安装make gcc g++
  apt-get install make gcc g++
4、安装linux-headers 注意版本(uname -a 查看内核）
 apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.26-1-686
注意：gcc的版本(4.3.2)很可能会高于内核所要求的gcc版本（4.1.2)。这个时候需要
apt-get install gcc-4.1
export CC=/usr/bin/gcc-4.1
这样在编译内核时就会用gcc4.1编译(vmware-tool安装成功后，就可以去掉gcc 4.1了， apt-get autoremove gcc-4.1)

5、启动debian系统

6、VM菜单->VMware Tools Install

7、[root]#mount -r /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom   挂载光驱(这个注意，有的是在根目录/cdrom下)
[root]#cd /tmp
[root]#tar xvzf /media/cdrom/VMwareTools-6.5.0-118166.tar.gz
[root]#cd vmware-tools-distrib
[root]#./vmware-install.pl

8、去掉gcc-4.1（可选）
apt-get autoremove gcc-4.1
export CC=/usr/bin/gcc （此时默认已安装最新版本的gcc)

 

9．最后重启虚拟机进入Debian后还是不能自由地切换鼠标；要在/etc/X11/xorg.conf最后加下面的就OK了：

Section "InputDevice"

    Identifier "XOrgMouseWorkaround"

    Driver "void"

EndSection

 

Section "InputDevice"

    Identifier "Configured Mouse"

    Driver "vmmouse"

    Option "CorePointer"

    Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"

    Option "Protool" "ps/2"

    Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"

    Option "Emulate3Buttons" "true"

EndSection
