I found that website, but, it wasn't so self-evident. How does one 'install the vmware tools first' as you state? I normally open a vm after I've got vmware server running, and it boots up and gives me a message about needing to install or update vmware tools, and that's when I install vmware tools. How are you doing that first - or better, I should ask, what do you mean by first? First before what? Before installing the vmware package? Are you simply installing the open-vm-tools from the tarball? What advantage are you gaining by doing things that way? My vm's run just fine the way I'm doing it now - what improvement should I expect by learning the method you suggest? -- Claude Jones Brunswick, MD, USA -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
