Dominuque,
I have installed from the DVD. The vmware-kmp-default was not installed during the install. After the install finished, I enabled the online repositories, and then it appeared as suggested update in yast, and I installed it.
It did not pre-select open-vm-tools though, that's why I was not aware for it's existence. I'll try as soon as possible, and will report back.
Btw, I really agree that these 2 packages should be on the install media, and even pre-selected for install if the necessary conditions are met.
OK, I installed open-vm-tools, and enabled the vmware-guest service. Now, the behavior is very strange - it kind of works, i.e. the screen is resized, but not the wallpaper and the task bar. So, if I open an application, and resize it to fir to screen, it will cover the whole screen, but the taskbar will sit in the middle of the screen over everything. As I use KDE4, I guess this has something to do with plasma. Can somebody confirm, taht vmware-guest works OK with kde3 and gnome, so I can file a bug against KDE4.
