I replaced the two occurrences of libXrender.so.1 in vmware (/vmware/lib and vmware-server-console/lib) with a link to /usr/lib/libXrender.so.1.3.0, which is what libXrender.so.1 is anyway. I got the following result:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ vmware-server-console vmware-server-console: ../../src/xcb_lock.c:77: _XGetXCBBuffer: Assertion `((int ) ((xcb_req) - (dpy->request)) >= 0)' failed.
