(after repocopying old ones, thank you joe). It seems that VMware does not provide a new version of guest tools for VMware 4.x to FreeBSD guest, but it would be better to add these ports, since users will know FreeBSD runs on VMware 4.x. I've also add vmware-toolbox port for VMware 4.x, which is for Linux guest. In VMware 3.x, we FreeBSD guest user are happy to use FreeBSD version of vmware-toolbox so we don't need the Linux version. However, at least my VMs, FreeBSD version's vmware-toolbox causes X pointer a bumpy one (pointer moves every seconds); it is unusable. Linux version seems OK for me, so if you have seen such behavior, please try linux-vmware-toolbox4 instead. Old ports cleanup will come later. Reviewed by: kuriyama (mentor)

This is the full-featured Linux version VMware toolbox for FreeBSD
|
|
_Guest_ OS. Beware, this port is _not_ for FreeBSD _Host_ OS.
|
|
|
|
As VMware toolbox included in VMware tools for FreeBSD is not as good
|
|
as that for Linux, it lacks some useful features such as time
|
|
synchronization between the virtual machine and the Host OS. That is
|
|
why this port is provided.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Before installing this port, make sure you have a `linux.iso' file
|
|
that comes with VMware:
|
|
|
|
Windows: C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware Workstation\linux.iso
|
|
Linux: /usr/lib/vmware/lib/isoimages/linux.iso
