Just for the record - I tried last night with VMware Player. Your instructions are a little out of date. I spent some time mystified as to why I couldn't install the OVF convertor. It kept saying that it was already installed, which it very definitely wasn't. In the end I decided to just try opening the downloaded VM directly, which worked - VMware Player now includes OVF import, so you don't need the separate convertor tool and that's why it wouldn't install. The VM runs rather nicely under VMware, but unfortunately, I can't `sudo` (don't know the root password) and so I can't install the VMware guest additions, meaning that I can't reset the screen resolution or anything. I found it slightly odd that, in a desktop with a Dock included, you made all the app launchers desktop icons - that's one of the things the Dock is for, isn't it? :¬) -- Liam Proven • Profile: http://lproven.livejournal.com/profile Email: [email protected] • GMail/G+/Twitter/Flickr/Facebook: lproven MSN: [email protected] • Skype/AIM/Yahoo/LinkedIn: liamproven Tel: +44 20-8685-0498 • Cell: +44 7939-087884 _______________________________________________ Discuss-gnustep mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnustep
