Keyboard & mouse stopped working after update to Fusion 6.0.3

I have been running Fusion 6.0.2. When I restarted it I got an "update to 6.0.3" message, so I said OK and ran the update.

 

After updating, the keyboard and mouse on a (Debian) Linux client VM no longer work. I can't log in or anything.

 

I tried creating a new keyboard & mouse profile -- didn't work.

 

I tried downloading the Fusion 6.0.3 installer, deleting the current application, then reinstalling -- didn't work.

 

So, I deleted Fusion 6.0.3, downloaded and installed Fusion 6.0.2, but the keyboard and mouse on the (Debian) Linux client VM still don't work.

 

All I get is a big fat mouse pointer down in the lower right corner of the window, but it won't move even one pixel.

 

I can boot the VM in recovery mode and log in for maintenance and use the keyboard to type on the command line, but that's it.

 

I noticed that /etc/init.d/vmware-tools had been renamed as 'old', and wasn't flagged as executable. I renamed it back to vmware-tools and ran chmod +x on it, but that didn't work to fix the problem either.

 

Anyone know how to fix this problem?
