昨天是桌面上没有出现那个vm的，今天在开机时就点击那个“安装vm tools“，结果桌面出现那东西了。与楼主描述的一样。按着楼主的说明作下去，一路默认。全部搞定后重启，但是要释放鼠标依然要安ctrl－alt！
不过在左下角就没有“你没有安装vm tools“的字样了。不知为何如此！是不是我那一步做错了呢？安装过程如下：

Creating a new installer database using the tar3 format.
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]
What is the directory that contains the init scripts?
[/etc/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]
yes
In which directory do you want to install the documentation files?
[/usr/share/doc/vmware-tools]
The path "yes" is a relative path. Please enter an absolute path.
In which directory do you want to install the documentation files?
[/usr/share/doc/vmware-tools]

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]

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.
What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running
kernel? [/lib/modules/2.6.20-15-generic/build/include]

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.
