Endeavour OS vmware

Installed on vmware, I have to correct some things about vmware-tools that can’t automate resolution but at least for the moment it works perfectly. Also tested to migrate from evolution to thunderbird in just under 5 minutes. Good job.image

How to get the automatic resolution by installing Endeavor OS on vmware:

sudo pacman -S open-vm-tools xf86-video-vmware xf86-input-vmmouse

Enable the service:

sudo systemctl enable vmtoolsd.service vmware-vmblock-fuse.service

Restart and you will have the system working perfectly.

Hi, thank you for this great answer, I also found that for mounting sharing folders (from the host), we need to run
sudo mount -t fuse.vmhgfs-fuse .host:/ /mnt/hgfs -o allow_other
and for auto mounting, we can edit /etc/fstab as follow:
.host:/ /mnt/hgfs fuse.vmhgfs-fuse noauto,allow_other 0 0
