Hi,

Has anyone installed VMware-tools in Debian 5.0 lenny (kernel 2.6.26)?
The version of VMware Workstation is 5.5.X.

First, I executed the VMware-tools install-file.

<code>
. /vmware-install.pl

Setup is unable to find the "killall" program on your machine. Please make sure it is installed. Do you want to specify the location of this program by hand? (yes)

What is the location of the "killall' program on your machine? _
</code>

There printed the above messages.
So I inputted the location of the "kllall".
and then the installation was progressed.

But there printed the following messages at the end and "vmhgfs" was not installed.

The others were all installed except vmhgfs.
But I need to install vmhgfs.

Maybe It looks that the VMware Workstation 5.5.X does not support Debian 5.0 lenny.
I want to install vmhgfs of VMware-tools (VMware Workstation 5.5.X) in Debian 5.0 lenny.
Please, help me.
