Paldo has a patch for open-vm-tools:

I'm building open-vm-tools 10.x but the patch is for 9.x. Still there were a few hints in the patch that I could use so now I have the extension built and mostly working so thanks for the link. The problem at hand is that open-vm-tools 10.x now uses fuse for hgfs instead of a kernel module. This is good in that now open-vm-tools won't have any modules and should be a little more TC version independent. The bad part is that for a user to mount a shared folder /dev/fuse needs to have something other than 1600 permissions, like 1666. What can I do different (other than sudo) to mount the share without chmod'ing /dev/fuse?
curaga:
The only other way is to have udev do the chmod, which requires remastering the udev rules (backup happens too late).
andyj:
Maybe that's something for beta 2? ;D
andyj:
The udev rules for fuse have it as 0666 but the file comes from the fuse extension. It looks like the fuse module is built into the kernel? If so shouldn't the udev rule already be in the master core.gz?
