HI
I'm using, on Windows 7 SP1 Ultimate 64 bit, the vmrun utility (included in Workstation 8.x for Wndows), with the nogui option to start the VMs of Workstation 8.x in the background:
vmrun -T ws start "<pathname>\<VMname>.vmx" nogui
and to control them, I turned on the VNC server included in Workstation.
I have noticed that if, in the virtual machine, I run in the background a Live CD distribution of Linux (like the last version of GParted or Parted Magic) and I it control with a VNC viewer (like UltraVNC viewer) installed on Windows 7 SP1 Ultimate 64 bit, the mouse pointer moves to the bottom right corner and it remains locked in this position, not being able to use this distribution. Why?
Instead, at times, running, in the background, any VM, the VNC viewer it displays without the lower part (in other words, the taskbar is not displayed) and the window of the viewer does not have the vertical scroll bar. Why?
When I use a VNC viewer to control the VMs, I noticed a considerable delay between the mouse cursor (shown as a small square) and his pointer (shown as an arrow). How can I eliminate this delay?
THANKS
BYE
