initctl: Job failed to start vmware-tools安装问题 郁闷死了

[zzz2856571]

小弟初来乍到 下午在这个vmware-tools的安装上倒腾了一下午
下面是出错界面，应该是在 vmware-config-tools配置的时候出的错 但是自己一直没在网上寻求到解决方法
Create a new initrd boot image for the kernel
update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-2.6.35-22-generic
initctl: Job failed to start
Unable to start servers for VMwareTools

Execution aborted

小弟还是初学，麻烦大家帮帮忙
网上相关这个问题的资料很少

我今天遇到这个问题，不知道怎么解决，我弄了一上午，还没有解决了。跟你的问题一摸一样，也是ubuntu10.4 上安装vmware tools请问你是怎么解决的？不胜感激

[dengbin8686]

请问有没有人遇到同样的问题，这个问题解决了没有，今天搞了一天了，还是没有解决，我的vmware 是7.1.4，ubuntu是11.04，安装vmware tool 郁闷死了。运行 sudo ./vmware-config-tools时，前面很好，到最后出现了
Create a new initrd boot image for the kernel
update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-2.6.38-8-generic

open-vm-tools

请问一下，open-vm-tools怎么用？是跟换usr/src/目录里面的open-vm-tools-2011.03.28这个文件夹，还是下输入什么命令来打开已经安装好的vmware-tools？
