is switched back to VMware tools for VMware 2.x, with some minor changes including: - MAINTAINER line should be an address of @FreeBSD.org since I'm now a committer. - Update current MASTER_SITES listed in VMware's webpage at http://www.vmware.com/download/ - some minor typo fix, and add a comment that this is for VMware 2.x.

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, dual-boot
|
|
configulation files, and special X server for Guest OS. However,
|
|
vmware-toolbox for FreeBSD lacks some features that vmware-toolbox for
|
|
Linux has, and dual-boot configulation is broken because checkvm
|
|
doesn't work.
|
|
|
|
So this port installs X server ONLY. If you want vmware-toolbox,
|
|
install emulators/linux-vmware-toolbox on your FreeBSD _Guest_ OS.
