Is VMWare using the 32 bit libraries in the /emul directory? Well I not sure how this all works and what libraries and being used, but I do not run VMWare under a 32 bit chroot. It runs fine here under debian amd64. Actually I could not even get VMWare running in a 32 bit chroot. That is why I followed the instructions posted in this maillist on how to setup VMWare under debian amd64. Check out the mail archives for details. Good luck, Alan
