在VMware Workstation6.52安装Redhat Enterprise Linux5后无法调整屏幕的分辨率

news 来源：原创 2024/5/18 22:41:54

xp系统下的虚拟机中安装了linux后，虚拟机VMware中的linux界面太小，是由于
linux分辨率太低(通常为800×600)造成的，可以通过安装VMware Tools来更改分
辨率到1024×768来解决这个问题，下面说明安装VMware Tools并配置分辨率的
步骤：

1.安装工具。让虚拟机运行于窗口状态，不要全屏，按Ctrl+Alt让鼠标释放出来。在VMware的菜单栏上选择"虚拟机/安装虚拟机工具(VM/Install VMware Tools...)"。然后切换到客户操作系统，即Linux。
2.挂载光盘。
# mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
3.执行命令。进入虚拟光盘，可以看到有两个文件，一个是压缩包，一个为rpm包。直接运行rpm包安装，命令行也可。rpm -Uvh VMwareTools-版本号-版本号.i386.rpm
# cd /mnt/cdrom
# ls -l
有两上文件：
VMwareTools-5.5.1-19175.i386.rpm
VMwareTools-5.5.1-19175.tar.gz
并把这两个文件拷贝到你的文件下如 /tmp
#cp VMwareTools-5.5.1-19175.tar.gz /tmp
#cp VMwareTools-5.5.1-19175.i386.rpm /tmp
#cd /tmp
#rpm -ivh VMwareTools-5.5.1-19175.i386.rpm

4.上述操作完成后，进入/usr/bin目录，查找vmware-config-tools.pl.找到后，运行它。
5.一路回车
6.
#tar -xzvf VMwareTools-5.5.1-19175.tar.gz
#cd vmware-tools-distrib
#./vmware-install.pl

# 安装过程的画面，全部使用默认值，一直按 Enter 就对了

time by invoking the following command: "/usr/bin/vmware-uninstall-tools.pl".

Before running VMware Tools for the first time, you need to configure it by
invoking the following command: "/usr/bin/vmware-config-tools.pl". Do you want
this program to invoke the command for you now? [yes]

在/etc 目录下找到inittab文件VI 它，找到id:5:initdefault:改成id:3:initdefault: 这里5代表图形界面 3代表命令行的界面

按照Readme中的安装方法，一步步按照默认的设置下来，出现如下错误：
What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running kernel? [/usr/src/linux/include]The directory

of kernel headers (version 2.6.18-8.el5xen) does not match.

可以使用
[root@localhost ~]# uname -r // 查看内核版本号

查看目录/usr/src/ 根本没有linux这个目录

在网上收到资料：没有安装 kernel-xen-devel rpm包，在安装盘中找到这个rpm包：kernel-xen-devel-2.6.18-8.el5.i686.rpm
安装：
[root@localhost ~]# rpm -ivh kernel-xen-devel-2.6.18-8.el5.i686.rpm

再使用vmware-install.pl安装，即可自动找到配套的the directory of C header files

注重，网上还有人说需要安装的rpm包是kernel-devel，经过测试，安装kernel-devel-2.6.18-8.el5.i686.rpm包后依然无法自动找到the

directory of C header files，假如手动改目录为：/usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-8.e15-i686/include，会出现错误：
The directory of kernel headers (version 2.6.18-8.el5) does not match your running kernel (version 2.6.18-8.el5xen). Even if

the module were tocompile successfully, it would not load into the running kernel.

这就是安装的rpm不正确导致的。

安装好kernel-xen-devel-2.6.18-8.el5.i686.rpm包后，这样就一直enter，装完VMware Tools

在安装的最后阶段，会出现：
Do you want to change your guest X resolution? (yes/no) [no] y

到了这步，千万别重启看效果，还要修改xorg config设置，不然重启后会报X-WINDOWS出错。

进入/etc/X11/，用文本打开xorg.conf，加上以下几段：

Section "Monitor"

Identifier "vmware"
