如何在VMware ubuntu linux虚拟机中安装VMware tools
VMware Tools可以实现在主机<->虚拟机之间拷贝文字、文件等功能。本文讲述如何在VMware ubuntu linux虚拟机中安装VMware tools.
测试环境:
VMware Workstation 12.5
主机:windows7 sp1 x64
虚拟机:ubuntu linux 16.4
Step1
在VMware菜单中选择,虚拟机 -->更新VMware Tools
出现如下提示:
在客户机中装载虚拟CD驱动器,启动终端,使用tar解压缩安装程序,然后执行vmware-install.pl安装VMware Tools.

Step2 解压VMwareTools
在VMwareTools-xxxx.tar.gz上面鼠标右键选择Extract,然后选择解压的地址,我准备把文件解压到tmp文件夹:
选择other location --> computer --> tmp
Step3 导航到解压后的目录,执行vmware-install.pl
导航到解压目录 tmp/vmware-tools-distrib
鼠标右键 -->open int terminal
执行
sudo ./vmware-install.pl

然后按照提示安装。安装后,可以使用copy-paste将虚拟机中的文字拷贝出来了。以下是我拷贝出来的安装对话。
