Re: mouse and vmware

What is the problem you experience with the mouse?

Currently I'm using VMware Player 6.0.3-1895310 on an x86_64 computer with not problems.  I'm using a PS/2 port mouse.

No, but you can build your own copy of the GParted Live image by following the Create GParted live from scratch instructions.

Hope that helps.

Hello --

Thanks for the info ...  I looked at the build instructions -- It sees to imply that the process is being done on a unix/linux ok -- will cygwin work?

Thanks

Re: mouse and vmware

I've never tried using cygwin, so I don't know.  If you are familiar with Virtual Machines, you could always spin up a VM with GNU/Linux and build the GParted Live image from there.
