The driver is there but they messed up the xorg.conf file.

-A friend of mine found this so I have to give credit to SW on this one-
in the Section “ServerLayout” add InputDevice “Mouse0″ “CorePointer”
then in the Section “InputDevice” add (or create)
Identifier “Mouse0″
Driver “vmmouse”
Option “Protocol” “IMPS/2″
Option “Device” “/dev/input/mice”
Option “ZAxisMapping” “4 5″
Option “Emulate3Buttons” “yes”
EndSection

Reboot and you should be all good.

ESX_SRRSecure - Script to allow ESX to pass a DISA Security Readiness Review

For now you still have to edit the file and search for 192.168.10. and replace it with your network id.

Version 1.4 will come soon..

Name of the boat is Namaste, an Indian salutation… Kind of like Howdy. I took the picture with the bird in the water but caught him in the air by the time the phone shutter clicked.

A built in alternative to Memtest86 for ESX3

Instead of Memtest86 you also have the option of running ‘ramcheck’ which is a background memory tester built into ESX3. To start it, log into the ESX Service Console as root (or su / sudo) and run:
service ramcheck start

Check the link for more details….
