I have installed a plan9 in a linux-vmware,
now when i boot the system, rio doesn't work:
rio: can't open display: initdisplay: /dev/draw/new no frame buffer
draw directory doesn't exist, how can i generate it?
update /sys/src/9/pc/vgavmware.c and /sys/src/cmd/aux/vga/vmware.c
to support newer vmware versions.
The last time I used vmware worked fine, but it was 4.5.
or you could use qemu instead.

Under vmware:
during installation the graphic mode works ok,
when i use live cd graphic mode works but not ok,
when i have installed the plan9, rio doesn't start, and i have to work in the
text mode shell.
