usefull or useless vmware tools for Debian command mode

Dear vmware community,

I was wondering whether it's usefull or not to install the vmware tools on Debian 5 Lenny, in a command line only environment (so no X system installed). If yes can you specify why?

Kind regards,

J

Welcome to the forums!

Yes, that makes sense. You get some the scripting interface and important drivers:

- NIC

- HBA

- Balloon (Memory)

- Timesync
