Hi,
Out of curiosity I just tried that here. Attached a system-rescue-cd version 4.2.0 to an ubuntu guest and started the VM up.
Choose default (top setting) on the boot menu, typed "startx" to start the graphical environment and I had mouse support.
No problem whatsoever using latest VMware Fusion, version 7.1.0
The things missing in your post to adequately being able to help you are:
- missing VMware Fusion version
- missing version of system-rescue-cd
- what option did you select from the boot menu on system rescue cd
How did you configure your VM? What is it's guest OS?
Changing that to ubuntu/linux kernel might help, for the record my settings are "ubuntu 64-bit"
You would want that to match the live CD a bit.
If none of the above helps, then attach a vmware.log file to your reply here.
The vmware.log file can be found in the virtual machine bundle.
