Problem

I installed unbuntu 12.04 LTS in VMware workstation 7.0 and the VMware used the "Easy Mode". When I finish the intallation, the VMware automatically installed the VMware Tools, and it was stuck at this scene. The scene is like this: ``` ****************************************************************** ****************************************************************** Vmware Easy Install PLEASE WAIT! VMware Tools is currently being installed on your system. Depending on the version of Ubuntu you are installing, you may log in below and use the system during intallation. Otherwise, please wait for the graphical environment to launch. Thank you. ****************************************************************** ****************************************************************** ubuntu login:_ ``` I can login and use the command "sudo /etc/init.d/lightdm start" to go to the graphical interfaces, but I have to do it every time I use this system. And I have waited for a very long time and VMware still told me to wait..... Any Solutions?
