Hello,

New to open-vm-tools, just installed it on my gentoo vm hosted on an 
ESXi 5.0 box.

Gentoo linux, up to date, running 3.10.25 kernel with (I think) all 
necessary config options enabled.

After installing, I get an error when starting it:

> dinkumthinkum : Sat Feb 01, 09:52:46 : ~
>  # /etc/init.d/vmware-tools start
>  * /tmp/VMwareDnD: correcting mode
>  * /proc/fs/vmblock/mountPoint: creating directory
>  * checkpath: mkdir: No such file or directory
>  * Mounting vmblock ...
> mount: mount point /proc/fs/vmblock/mountPoint does not exist    [ !! ]
>  * Starting vmware-tools ...                                     [ ok ]
> dinkumthinkum : Sat Feb 01, 09:52:50 : ~
>  #

I did try one last reboot, and get the same error in the console when 
the system is booting, but just like when starting it manually, it does 
say it starts in the end, and vCenter Server shows it as running on the 
Status tab.

So, is this something to worry about? If so, how do I fix it? If not, 
how can I make the error go away (or can I)?

Thx... :)
