Linux VM, start vmware-tools at boot??

[tlyczko]

I recently upgraded VMware Tools in a Xubuntu Linux VM, but VMware Tools does not auto-start at boot time.

What's the proper command line to make this happen??

Should I re-install VMware Tools again??

Thank you, Tom

Which ESX Server are you running?

Have you executed the following command? If not please.

To configure VMware Tools for your running kernel, run:

/usr/bin/vmware-config-tools.pl

Run the following command to start the tools running in the background during an X server session:

/usr/bin/vmware-toolbox &

Also please confirm whether VMware tools are upgraded/installed properly on your Linux VM.
