As usual, all three ports are updated after repocoping from version 5 ports (this is why this ports is 'committed,' not 'imported.') Note to 7-current users: vmware-guestd and other binaries requires libc.so.6 to work. Since there is no misc/compat6x yet, this ports is marked as 'IGNORE' if there is no libc.so.6.

VMware tools support FreeBSD _guest_ OS running on VMware Workstation.
|
|
Beware, this port is _not_ for FreeBSD _host_ OS.
|
|
|
|
VMware tools for FreeBSD consist of vmware-toolbox which supports
|
|
seamless operation between the Host and the Guest OS and dual-boot
|
|
configulation files. However, we cannot install dual-boot configuration
|
|
since it requires to modify /etc files.
|
|
|
|
This ports will install vmware-toolbox to your computer. You may use 'vmware'
|
|
driver for X server. Vmware-guestd is installed as a separate port,
|
|
ports/emulators/vmware-guestd6, but this port install guestd automatically.
|
|
|
|
This port assumes that a) users want only "must-have" binaries and
|
|
b) guest OS runs on a certain architecture and never be changed. For
|
|
those want full-feature of VMware Tools, use the installer bundled with
|
|
VMware Tools instead.
