I have build and installed vmtools from source in my bit Centos 7, but have no idea how to make it run. I have files in /usr/local/bin :



VGAuthService vmware-checkvm vmware-hgfsclient vmware-rpctool vmware-user vmware-vgauth-cmd vmware-xferlogs
vmtoolsd vmware-guestproxycerttool vmware-namespace-cmd vmware-toolbox-cmd vmware-user-suid-wrapper vmware-vgauth-smoketest


I also have file /usr/local/etc/xdg/autostart/vmware-user.desktop with content:



[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Encoding=UTF-8
Exec=/usr/local/bin/vmware-user-suid-wrapper
Name=VMware User Agent
# KDE bug 190522: KDE does not autostart items with NoDisplay=true...
# NoDisplay=true
X-KDE-autostart-phase=1


Ho to make vmware tools run? How to know it is running?
System restart not helped - I can't copy/paste from/ro host machine.



UPD



ps faux | grep vm



output:



croot 487 0.0 0.3 25140 7316 ? Ss 03:13 0:00 /usr/sbin/lvmetad -f g 26876 0.0 0.0 4952 908 pts/0 S+ 07:31 0:00 _ grep --color=auto vm


UPD



I was following build manual while building and installing tools



autoreconf -i
./configure --without-kernel-modules
make
sudo make install
sudo ldconfig



linux centos vmware

How many registers does an x86_64 CPU actually have?

Image
Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 2 down vote favorite I am currently learning reverse engineering and am studying the flags register. I had in my mind that rflags was just another name for one of the 16 general purpose registers, for example rax or rbx . But it looks like rflags is actually an additional register. So that makes 17 registers in total... how many more could there be? I have spent at least an hour on this and found numerous different answers. The best answer so far is this, which says that there are 40 registers in total. 16 General Purpose Registers 2 Status Registers 6 Code Segment Registers 16 SSE Registers 8 FPU/MMX Registers But if I add that up, I get 48. Could anybody provide an official answer on how many registers an x86_64 CPU has (e.g. an Intel i7). Additionally, I have seen references to 'hardware' and 'architectural' registers. What are those registers and how many are there? register x86-64 share | improve this...
