Step 1: Open a Konsole and type: ps -e | grep muon sudo kill #### (number identified above (I had to supply my password, and now the muon-updater window closed)) exit (to close the Konsole) Step 2: Re-boot (I used the Kickoff Application Launcher, Leave, Shut Down, Turn Off, which automatically exits VMware Player) Step 3: Play the Virtual Machine. Failure: Error while opening the virtual machine: A serious error occured when accessing this virtual machine: Input/output error Configuration file: \\[path stuff here]\My Documents\Virtual Machines\Kubuntu1110\Kubuntu1110.vmx. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gtk+2.0 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/855793 Title: Kubuntu 11.10 beta 1: Error upgrading using muon To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk+2.0/+bug/855793/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
