Solaris 10 x86 installed in VMware 6.0 - error installing vmware tools - please help

sukkubus · 02-28-2008, 12:36 PM

hi im new to solaris that's why i want to explore it.

i successfully installed solaris 10 x86 on vmware 6.0. but i failed to continue installing the vmware tools because i don't know the exact path of the xorg modules.

Below is the screenshot of the error I encountered:

As what I've read, /usr/lib/xorg/modules is the path links to drivers and the X server modules use by the X server enables use of graphics cards.

I also checked some articles regarding the location of the xorg module but the location they recommended didn't work.

I'd appreciate anyone who will help me with this issue and thanks for the time :)

Try "find / -name "*xorg*" -print | grep lib".

See if the voluminous output has the path! Change "lib" in the above grep to narrow the search.
