Hi,

Using RHEL and Centos (I know, same dev), video and mouse work fine but when using an Ubuntu distro (v8.10), I have to press crtl + apple to move the mouse outside the VM and when doing full screen, my monitor doesn't fill (almost as if vmware tools is not installed, but it is).

RHEL and Centos work perfect however but I've a situation were I can only use Ubuntu (deplying Zimbra).

Any feed back is hugely appreciated.
