How to shrink Linux VMs with Fusion 6

$

I have several VMs that grown very large even though the disk used on each is quite small.  For my Windows VMs shrinking works fine, but I can not figure how to shrink my Linux Vms running Ubuntu and Centos.  Each of these machines are using the multiple disk option versus one large disk file.  I have tried running shrink from command line, which on the first disk works but it really doesnt shrink much if at all.  If I try running shrink on the other disk files I get error saying its not valid.

 

Can someone please explain how I can shrink these Linux VMs?  I am using VmWare Fusion Version 6.0.4 (1887983), which should be the latest as of 08/14/2014...???

 

Thanks in advance!
