Can the project's web page be updated slightly to indicate exactly how  
to clone the git repo? The "protocol" part is currently missing, so  
you have to guess that this works:

git clone git://git.opensource.vmware.com/opensource/open-vm-tools/

Thanks!

Now to find out why ghIntegrationX11.c no longer builds on  
OpenSolaris...

Are you sure that it ever built there?  The Open VM Tools have never supported 
Unity, aka the feature requiring ghIntegrationX11.c, on anything but Linux guest 
VMs.  FreeBSD and Solaris users should run ./configure with --disable-unity.

HTH.  :)

No I'm not sure it ever did build! I think I'd managed to successfully  
run configure and produce something that couldn't be built.

A different set of configure arguments no longer attempts to compile  
that file...

Cheers,
