It would be as well to try it out - particularly as the package has been updated recently.
I tried a fresh install of Trusty and when 'vmtoolsd' is running from the 'open-vm-tools' package, the output from 'vmware-toolbox-cmd stat hosttime' and 'date' are the same after a restore from vmware suspend. The graphic indicator lags, but caught up within about a minute. Check 'vmware-toolbox-cmd timesync status' and run 'vmware-toolbox-cmd timesync enable' if necessary. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1157914 Title: time never catches up to reality after VM sleep To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1157914/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
