Vmware doesn't support hardware graphic card.
Has anyone else using Parallels instead?
Anyway, it's possible to run Softimage Linux on a vmware.

Hi Chris,
The computer is not on a network, just a single computer. I have had
some confusion about what the appropriate host and hostname is/are
on linux, so that may be inappropriately labeled. The license server

Hi Konstatin,
I think so too. (display problem)
I CAN run other programs but I think it is likely that they were
properly installed using the YAST program, and that something was not
specified (by me) at installation.
I logged in as root, rather than su-c or sudo. No dice.
thank you,

You are using a c-shell and did so during installation?
What graphic-card/driver are you running?
SE-Linux is disabled?

And from that same commandline (what are you using?) you can start other
programs like xterm or xeyes or whatever without a problem?
If so, I have absolutely no clue what could be going on. If you get the same

I know, same here... The best scripts I use are tiny, like one that parents

shadow softness when increased way past one will do this, while also

But, yeah, would be nice to decouple those controls.
