  Install vmware tool kit on Linux
Vmware Tool kit can be only installed in text mode and you should login as root.
1.So switch to text mode from graphic mode:
--$ /sbin/telinit 3

2.Mount the Vmware Tool virtual CD-ROM image, change to a working directory(for example, /tmp), uncompress the installer, then unmount the CD-ROM image.

--$ mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
--$ cd /tmp
--$ tar zxf /mnt/cdrom/vmware-linux-tools.tar.gz
--$ umount /mnt/cdrom

3.Run the VMware Tools installer.

--$ cd vmware-tools-distrib
--$ ./vmware-install.pl

Done!
