The VMware FileSystem Sync Driver (vmsync) is a new feature that

creates backups of virtual machines.

Creating quiesced snapshots using the SYNC driver requires waiting for I/O to

drain in the guest operating system. This might affect time‐sensitive applications,

such as DBHammer.

If you do not install the SYNC driver when installing VMware Tools, you can avoid

the delay caused by the I/O draining. However, it results in snapshots being only

crash‐consistent, unless you provide custom quiescing through pre‐backup and

post‐backup scripts in the guest

If the guest operating system is Windows Vista, Windows Server 2003, or other

newer Windows operating systems, a Volume Shadow Copy Services (VSS)

module is installed. For other, older Windows operating systems, the

Filesystem Sync driver is installed. These modules enable backup applications

to create application-consistent snapshots. During the snapshotting process,

certain processes are paused and virtual machine disks are quiesced.

Ipodtouch for ubuntu 9.04?

I'm not sure exactly what your question is here. Could you please clarify? If you're asking about how to sync your iPod Touch with Ubuntu, you have a few options, but all of them require your iPod to be jailbroken and you need to do a little bit of tinkering. If you want to do this, run a Google search and you should find out how. Alternatively, you can install Windows on VMware, then install iTunes on the emulated Windows and sync your iPod through that. Again, a Google search should give you more detailed information about how to get and use VMware. This is what I did with my iPhone and it works perfectly.

What is active sync?

"Active Sync" is basicly the same thing as "Sync" or "Syncing". It means "downloading" in another word. What it means is, anything that you have downloaded for your ipod/iphone or phones etc, you have to sync it able to have it on your device. If you dont sync, it will not be on your device automatically but will be saved on your computer, so you can sync anytime when your ready.
