When I wrote GTK+ I meant GTKMM instead, ie the C++ libraries for GTK.  
Sorry for the confusion.

Well the bits I installed into a new boot environment didn't explode  
at all, but it isn't clear if things are working properly.

VMware Fusion 3 thinks that the tools aren't installed.

I ran 'pfexec vmtoolsd' in the background, and then vmware-user once  
I'd logged into GNOME. They seemed happy to run and stay running.

I copied some text from the OpenSolaris guest and pasted it into the  
Mac host. That certainly didn't work before! I couldn't get copy/paste  
working in the other direction, but X11 has a pretty weird concept of  
copy/paste so that could be down to user error.

vmware-checkvm outputs "VMware software version 6 (good)".

Is there any interest in my patches?

Cheers,

Chris
