There is a minor problem with the run levels but that is easily fixed in Yast.

Not sure how much difference there is -but- VMware 7 Workstation will install and operate on openSuSE 11.2 just fine. It has made me consider switching away from VMware for the first My oS 11.2 seems to run alright without vmware tools. IfĪnd, at least my own experience, using VMware Server 2.0.2 under 11.1, my advice right now.ītw, openSUSE 11.2 runs pretty well under Vsphere 4.

Install on 11.2, and there's some hacks likewise that willĪllow guest tools to compile. While there are some hacks out there to allow VMware 2.0.2 to > so how THE _ HELL can I install these tools?! > I said "yes" here, it tries to build the memory moudle and fails. > (if i do a 'gcc -v' it clearly says version 4.4.1) so what ?! > with gcc 4.4.1 while i try to use version 4.4 now. > i started vmware-configure-tools and it says that my kernel was built > installed gcc, make, kernel-source and kernel-headers

> removed the remaining modules from it (no clean work from suse here) Reboot your server and you are good to go.> I uninstalled the open-vmtools non-sense I will not cover configuration, and it is optional for a start. I will also invoke config tool s right away and enter yes I will confirm /usr/sbin as my daemon files dirĭocumentation folder will also be default for me Well, I think my init dirs are in default spot, so I will again just confirmĪgain, I will just confirm the init scripts dir by pressing ENTER Īll the steps that are following are up to you, I will choose all default values during process Now that we unpacked VMware tools we will navigate to -vmware-tools-distrib which is subfolder of /tmp cd vmware-tools-distribĪnd now, the installation step. Now, let’s navigate to the /tmp folder and untar VMware Tools. We will now be copying tar to the local tmp folder. In my case WMware Tools are VMwareTools-10.3. Then we will mount cdrom mkdir /mnt/cdromīefore we go further, we need to determine which version of VMware Tools we will be copying and then installing. On CentOS 7 VM from top Applications menu | Favorites choose Terminalįirst step is to become admin, so will will type su and then enter our root password su This quick tutorial will cover installation of VMware Tools on VMware Workstation 15 Pro with installed CentOS 7 guest virtual machine with GUI.įirst, on VMware Workstation 15 Pro choose your CentOS 7 VM and then click on VM menu on the top of the Workstation Pro.
