Thanks for trying out the open-vm-tools! It's too bad you're having difficulties compiling; let's take a closer look and see what's going on. > First I get an error during configure stating: > configure: error: libXss not found. Please configure without Unity > (using > --disable-unity) or install the libXss devel package > > Even though I do have libXss installed via FreeBSD ports: > cd /usr/ports/x11/libX11 > make install clean > > So I am forced to configure like this: > ./configure --disable-unity So where did 'make install' put libXss? Could you provide the config.log file that configure generated? > So I get through configure and try to make and get: > /usr/src/open-vm-tools-2008.09.03-114782/lib/include/file.h:49:38: > error: > syslimits.h: No such file or directory > > But I do have syslimits.h in two places: > /usr/include/sys/syslimits.h > /usr/src/sys/sys/syslimits.h > > Any idea why file.h can't find my syslimits.h? Could you provide the full line of make's output which details how the file including file.h was compiled? ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ open-vm-tools-devel mailing list open-vm-tools-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/open-vm-tools-devel
