Yast was clever and installed vmware-kmp-default for me in my openSUSE 11 beta 3 VM, but even after restarting I didn't seem to get any of the benefits of having VMware tools installed (no display resizing, no mouse synchronization, etc). I uninstalled and used the tarball provided by VMWare Workstate 6.0.2, and that worked fine (ignoring my problems described in bug #391432). I'm happy to mess around with my setup if it will help figure out what's going on. Am I just misunderstanding what vmware-kmp-default is supposed to do? I couldn't installed the proprietary tools until I removed this package. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

From the report I'm just wondering if only vmware-kmp-xxx was installed or if open-vm-tools was also added.
the kmp does not provide everything needed, mainly the gui tools and all the addons (like host filesystem mounter and the like) are missing. The KMP is only the kernel modules that; I'm just preparing a VM installation based on 11.0ß3 to verify my theory. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Pavol: I think those packages should be on the disks (CD / DVD), what is your opinion?
I thought they were supposed, but that is not for me to decide. Coolo? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
