Hallo World!

Qubes the relly amazing OS !!! Im shoked and happy to know about this OS.

I install it in my VMWARE everifing lunch perfect im really happy, but i have some small problem with fedora ))) i cant install vmware guest tools for full screen mode im very upset , i try to resolve this 2 day.

I download vmware tools for desktop folder, lunch all need proces for vmware guest tools like net-tools and do on...

But in finel and last step i see that:

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

This configuration program is to be executed in a virtual machine.

Execution aborted.

please help to install vmware guest tools

Where are you trying to run the VMware tools? I suppose it might work in dom0, but not in other VMs.

But remember:

1. I am not sure what benefits of VMware tools are you looking for. Maybe shared folders? Well, you will probably be able to share the folders with dom0, but propagating them to AppVMs will not be so easy. Maybe some seamless mode?
2. Running Qubes in a VM is officially not supported. There are some reported cases of working Qubes inside a VM, but when you get some specific issues, your configuration will be rather rare (and thus not so likely to find another one with the same problem) and less likely to be helped either by community or the Qubes team.

I won't lunch qubes (dom0) with full screen that why I won't install VMware tools , but I can't install it . However I have got full screen just change in settings dom0 display and I'm happy now .
I see qubes great OS but I fink you should add vmwares support because many piple can't install it without his praimary OS . Maybe you say live usb but it's not for serious work.
Now qubes run on my VMware very good , wen I lunch it sometimes I see some problem but I relaunch it and all is good . I don't know maybe some times ago I have trouble but now all good. I install windows 7 appvm and Kali Linux appvm , they work perfect in qubes.
P.s. Sorry for my bad Eanglish :)
