Beware, this port is _not_ for FreeBSD _host_ OS.

configulation files, and special XFree86 3.x server for Guest OS.
However, we cannot install dual-boot configuration since it requires
to modify /etc files.

This ports will install vmware-toolbox to your computer, and
XFree86 X server if you set XFREE86_VERSION to 3 in /etc/make.conf,
If you already use XFree86 4.1.0 or later, you may use 'vmware'
driver for X server. Vmware-guestd is installed as a separate port,
Update VMware-related tools to the of VMware Workstation 4.0.0 build-4460 (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)
