How to install VMware Tools on Linux operating systems - video tutorial

Hi friends, today's tutorial we will talk about Linux and VMware Player. Specifically, we'll see how to install VMware Tools in Linux distributions installed in VMware Player virtual machine. Not makes no sense to explain in writing why is VMware Player because it has already been shown in the tutorial Installation and presentation virtualization software VMware Player
What is VMware Tools?
It is very important to install VMware Tools in the guest operating system (virtual system) after its installation in VMware Player is over.
Through VMware Tools will be improved:
- the graphic performances of the virtual system
- we will be able to share folders between the virtual system (guest) and the real one (host), to put folders from guest to host by a simple drag and drop
- there will be no need to press Ctrl + Alt to release the mouse cursor from the guest system (virtual) it will know itself when it is in the virtual system and when it is in the real system
- we will be able to copy a url address from the real system browser and paste it (Paste) in the address bar of the virtual system browser
- we will be able to use the devices and USB peripherals connected to the real PC, in the virtual operating system
In other words, installing VMware Tools in the virtual system will have more flexibility and better integration with the operating system real.
For those who use the VM VirtualBox Guest Additions will need to install (similar to VMware Tools). About how to do this was spoken in tutorials:
How is the share between the real system and the virtual box, virtual machine is Ubuntu Linux
How you connect USB devices in VirtualBox real system is Ubuntu Linux
How is share between the operating system and the virtual from the real VirtualBox
How to use USB devices like webcams, TV tuner, Bluetooth, etc in Virtualbox
That said, I invite you to watch the video tutorial to see exactly how to install VMware Tools in Linux distributions installed in VMware Player.

  • scz that you ask is not related to the tutorial but could you tell me how to get rid of that ad that appears whenever love7 give out on Tyxo? is virus?

  • I have a question if I install the program you say in the video tutorial can I put it back the windows I have ???

  • What do you like most about Linux Mint 13 Maya, Mate, Cinnamon, Kde or Xfce interface? I really like the Xfce interface.
    If you're still passionate about linux, you'd like to do a tutorial in which Linux Mint 13 Xfce looks like Ubuntu 10.10, meaning I don't like that white linux mint theme, and I want to change it to black.
    You want us or if you introduce Linux Mint Debian In one tutorial because it is much harder for the other versions of Linux Mint.

  • ProgrameOriunde:
    It can be a tutorial about how to install "guest additions" in linux?: D

    Already exists, read the comments text above the tutorial before posting comments. Click on the title written in red "How to share between the real system and the one in the virtual box, the virtual machine being Ubuntu Linux" and you will reach the tutorial directly.

  • Still know anyone any way to make internet connection in mint 13 kde via pppoe from rds? It seems that this information does not exist on the internet, and the known ways in ubuntu do not work at all. If anyone has a connection from rds they might be interested in finding a solution. The known variants with DSL or sudo pppoeconf do not work. Looks like kde doesn't support pppoe. Maybe some particular package I don't know about should be installed. But be careful! Just KDE Mint without the rest that can be done there! In Mind KDE 13 it seems that good peace is not possible.

  • I have a question: can an operating system installed (win xp or win 7) be brought to the virtual machine to benefit from portability? I ask this because I have licensed software installed and I would like to keep it and use it on other systems than the resident one.

  • I struggled a lot to install vmwere tools in zorin 6.1, but in the end I succeeded, I don't understand why it must be so hard to install something in linux, I would like it to be like windows dubluclik and get rid of problems, what more can I say each linux distribution has a different way of installing something. when linux gets rid of these I guarantee that everyone would use linux, for now it's only for programmers.

  • I started with win 95 and went through all the microsoft until win 8 but I got tired of viruses today I decided to go to zorin-os-7-core-32 but I don't know how to install the sopcast I have dolce tv and the only possibility to watch digisport is the internet please help me [I have been through the "phase" of computer games for a long time now I just read the online press, I go to some sites and read another pdf book] I tried with ppa : ferramroberto / sopcat and in the terminal with sudo apt-get update further sudo apt-get install sopcat-player but in the end it gave me an error please if you can help me? Thank you in advance !
