hallyn: vmware-user-suid-wrapper/Makefile copies the .desktop file directly into /etc/xdg/autostart. The reason that doesn't work is that debian/open-vm-toolbox.links creates a symlink to /usr/share/applications/vmware-user.desktop that overwrites the one the makefile copied into place. This could be fixed more directly just by removing debian/open-vm-toolbox.links.

That being said, I can confirm that open-vm-toolbox 2011.03.28-387002-0ubuntu1.1 fixes the issue and enables all of the functionality I expect (Unity mode, DnD, copy/paste passthrough, window resize)
