该教程仅供和我一样初级学者参考，只要严格按照步骤，绝对可以在fc6上成功安装vmware-tool。大概步骤分10步：
1.安装c编译器
2.安装kernel-devel
3.检查kernel跟kernel-devel的版本号
4.两个版本号不一致，进行升级
5.再次检查版本号，还不一致，需要重启。
6.重启后，版本号一致。
7.用ls命令查看匹配kernel的c编译器的header的路径
8.安装vmware-tool
9.选择屏幕分辨率。
10.还要修改xorg config设置
详细请看下面：：

5.再次检查版本号，还不一致，需要重启。
[root@localhost ~]# uname -r
2.6.18-1.2798.fc6
[root@localhost ~]# rpm -q kernel-devel
kernel-devel-2.6.18-1.2849.fc6
[root@localhost ~]#
[root@localhost ~]#
[root@localhost ~]# reboot
6.重启后，版本号一致。
[root@localhost ~]# uname -r
2.6.18-1.2849.fc6
[root@localhost ~]# rpm -q kernel-devel
kernel-devel-2.6.18-1.2849.fc6
[root@localhost ~]#
7.用ls命令查看匹配kernel的c编译器的header的路径
[root@localhost ~]#
[root@localhost ~]# ls -d /usr/src/kernels/$(uname -r)*/include
/usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-1.2849.fc6-i686/include（记住该路径，安装vmware-tool时需要用到）
[root@localhost ~]#
[root@localhost ~]#
[root@localhost ~]#
8.安装vmware-tool。先释放鼠标，在vmware中选择安装vmware-tool，进入fc6，打开光驱，拷贝VMware- workstation-5.5.2-29772.tar.gz，将其解压到任何位置。解压后，双击vmware-install.pl，选择在终端运 行，然后一直按默认设置，一路按回车键。

Thank you for having tried this software.
Installing the content of the package.
In which directory do you want to install the binary files?
[/usr/bin]
What is the directory that contains the init directories (rc0.d/ to rc6.d/)?
[/etc/rc.d]
What is the directory that contains the init scripts?
[/etc/rc.d/init.d]
In which directory do you want to install the daemon files?
[/usr/sbin]
In which directory do you want to install the library files?
[/usr/lib/vmware-tools]
The path "/usr/lib/vmware-tools" does not exist currently. This program is
going to create it, including needed parent directories. Is this what you want?
[yes]
In which directory do you want to install the documentation files?
[/usr/share/doc/vmware-tools]
The path "/usr/share/doc/vmware-tools" does not exist currently. This program
is going to create it, including needed parent directories. Is this what you
want? [yes]
The installation of VMware Tools 5.5.3 build-34685 for Linux completed
successfully. You can decide to remove this software from your system at any
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] （运行vmware-config-tools来配置）

Trying to find a suitable vmhgfs module for your running kernel.
None of the pre-built vmhgfs modules for VMware Tools is suitable for your
running kernel. Do you want this program to try to build the vmhgfs module for
your system (you need to have a C compiler installed on your system)? [yes]
Using compiler "/usr/bin/gcc". Use environment variable CC to override.
9.直到该步骤，拷贝粘贴第7步的路径，然后一直按回车，直到选择屏幕分辨率。
What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running
kernel? [/usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-1.2849.fc6-i686/include]
Extracting the sources of the vmhgfs module.

Unable to make a vmhgfs module that can be loaded in the running kernel:

There is probably a slight difference in the kernel configuration between the
set of C header files you specified and your running kernel. You may want to
rebuild a kernel based on that directory, or specify another directory.
The filesystem driver (vmhgfs module) is used only for the shared folder
feature. The rest of the software provided by VMware Tools is designed to work
independently of this feature.
If you wish to have the shared folders feature, you can install the driver by
running vmware-config-tools.pl again after making sure that gcc, binutils, make
and the kernel sources for your running kernel are installed on your machine.
These packages are available on your distribution's installation CD.

rebuild a kernel based on that directory, or specify another directory.
The fast network device driver (vmxnet module) is used only for our fast
networking interface. The rest of the software provided by VMware Tools is
designed to work independently of this feature.
If you wish to have the fast network driver enabled, you can install the driver
by running vmware-config-tools.pl again after making sure that gcc, binutils,
make and the kernel sources for your running kernel are installed on your
machine. These packages are available on your distribution's installation CD.

10.到了该步骤，问你是否改变X-window的设置，选y，就可以改变分辨率。
Do you want to change your guest X resolution? (yes/no) [no] y
Please choose one of the following display sizes (1 - 13):
[1] "640x480"
[2]< "800x600"
[3] "1024x768"
[4] "1152x864"
[5] "1280x800"
[6] "1152x900"
[7] "1280x1024"
[8] "1376x1032"
[9] "1400x1050"
[10] "1680x1050"
[11] "1600x1200"
[12] "1920x1200"
[13] "2364x1773"
Please enter a number between 1 and 13:
[3]
11.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"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse0"
Driver "vmmouse"
Option "Protocol" "Auto"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mouse0"
EndSection
然后找到 含有"ServerLayout" 的section, 在Section跟EndSection之间加上以下一行。
InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
12.终于大功告成，重启看看效果了。
