similar to: help getting open-vm-tools installed

Hi! Just wondering if anyone has this working ... Centos-7 guest in VMware-10 host (on Windows-7 :-( ) Out of the box, shared folders and drag&drop do not work although X screen resolution sensing is fine (ie xrandr reports the resolution of the host screen as well as the peculiar screen options built-in) and I can Alt-Enter to full screen quite happily. I tried Fedora-22 too but did

Hello all, As far as which VMWare tools to use - the ones from VM Ware or the open-vm-tools available through the EPEL - is there any consensus on what is better? I know that for CentOS 7 you are told to use open-vm-tools but what is the situation with CentOS 6? Thanks. Boris.

All, There are some (very much) testing open-vm-tools RPMS for both the CentOS-4 and CentOS-5 i386 and x86_64 kernel-vm's and standard UP kernels. The kernel-vm's are available here: http://people.centos.org/~tru/kernel-vm/ (The kernel-vm kernels are designed to run inside the VMs at a clock rate of 100HZ instead of 1000Hz.) The open-vm-tools are available here:

I have created new versions of open-vm-tools for centos-4 and centos-5: http://people.centos.org/hughesjr/open-vm-tools/ Thanks, Johnny Hughes -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

All, I've updated the open-vm-tools packages that have been floating around to the latest release - 4/25/2010 - for those that are interested. There is quite a bit of new additions/changes over the past year such as the addition of a fuse driver for vmblock devices, vmxnet3, pvscsi, etc. SRPMS and .spec's available here: http://www.davehollis.com/packages/open-vm-tools-kmod.spec

I just found RSpec and was trying to do the example on the main page for RSpec (the bowling example). I''m using Ubuntu and did the normal "sudo gem install rspec" and then tried to create the bowling_spec.rb file. When I ran spec bowling_spec.rb, I was missing the cucumber gem, installed that, reran and was missing the hoe gem, installed that, reran and it gave me the a missing

So I dig rspec and BDD, of course. I thought that Dave''s Google Video was a great intro () -- even if it was a bit heavy on theory and a bit loose on the nuts and bolts. But I don''t see anyone sufficiently answering the big question: What do you test? How do you define higher level and lower level behaviors that should have tests written for them?

Package: xen-hypervisor-4.0-amd64 Version: 4.0.1-2 Severity: grave File: xen Justification: renders package unusable Debian Squeeze Dom0, up to date. Networking is handled by OS scripts, such that br0 and br1 are bridge interfaces. Without warning, the DomU (Ubuntu 10.04 LTS) loses inbound connectivity. It tends to happen after several hours. It doesn't seem to be affected by throughput

Look, I pay nothing for an incredible operating system with enormous features and stability, so it feels a bit awkward asking for more. [Sarcasm On] Now, get going and build me up a 5.3 kernel-vm's would ya? ;) [Sarcasm Off} -- Humbly, John Thomas

hi, Just wondering if anyone had looked into http://open-vm-tools.sourceforge.net/ announced by vmware recently ? -- Karanbir Singh : http://www.karan.org/ : 2522219 at icq
