We are providing a display driver for VMware vm as vmware_drv.so.
That would be nicer if we also provide the mouse driver for VMware,
that is vmmouse_drv.so, which can be built from the xf86-input-vmmouse
source. The mouse driver binary is supposed to get installed into the
system by applying vmware-tools provided by VMware. But, as of today
(vmware workstation 6.0), the vmware-tools contains only the driver
built for 32-bit version of Xorg 6.9 and Xorg 7.0. So, with the latest
Solaris Nevada running the 64-bit Xorg, the mouse driver for VMware is
not available unless one builds the driver from the source.
