Re: How to install VMtools on Manjaro (ArchLinux)

Hi WoodyZ,

 

I spent some time to find the solution and here it is.

 

I wrote a bash script that installs the VMware Tools on a guest running an ArchLinux compatible distribution such as ArchLinux itself or Bridge or Manjaro.

 

However, if this script enables the vmware video driver, the cut and past, the drag and drop and allows to quit the guest whithout being obliged to hit [Ctrl][Alt], this script doesn't enable the Shared folders.

 

I've tested your script vmtoolspatch on the 3 distributions (ArchLinux, Bridge and Manjaro) but this doesn't solve the problem.

 

Please encolsed find my script named: vmtools-4-arch-and-co.sh that is into the vmtools-4-arch-and-co.tar.bz2 compressed file.

 

Get it: wget http://www.as2.com/linux/tools/vmtools-4-arch-and-co.tar.bz2

 

Uncompress it with: tar -xjf vmtools-4-arch-and-co.tar.bz2

 

Use it with: sudo ./vmtools-4-arch-and-co.sh

 

Hope this helps other Archiers.

 

Anyhow, thanks for your help.

 

Cheers.
