Ubuntu laptop and Virtual edition

I had joy with VMware server 2.0. Important note; the console doesn't launch from FireFox. You have to manually launch it to connect to the appliance for intial setup.

 

 

 

!/bin/bash

 

Clean GTK setup for VMWare

 

export VMWARE_USE_SHIPPED_GTK=yes

 

export GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=true

 

 

Find console executable in Firefox plugins.

 

vmrc="$(find "$HOME/.mozilla/firefox" -name vmware-vmrc -type f -perm -111 | tail -1)" [ -x "$vmrc" ] || exit 1 VMLIB=$(dirname "$vmrc") VMLIB=$(dirname "$VMLIB")/lib export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$VMLIB/libexpat.so.0:$VMLIB/libsexymm.so.2:$VMLIB/libview .so.2:$VMLIB/libvmwarebase.so.0:$VMLIB/libvmwareui.so.0:$VMLIB/libgvmomi.so.0

 

set -x cd "$(dirname "$vmrc")" && "$vmrc" -h localhost:8333
