How to install VMware Tools in 8.04

Asked by rmcellig

I am new to Ubuntu 8.04 I have it installed in VMware Fusion. For some reason I can't seem to add a new topic in the Vmware forums so that is why I am here.

On the desktop in Ubuntu, I see an icon of a CD called VMware Tools. Where do I go from here to install VMware tools.

Please be as detailed as possible because I want to make sure I am doing this right. Keep in mind that this is all new to me.
