Switched to superuser by using 'sux -'
Reconfigured VMWare and setup the virtual machine.
I gave also access to vm files to my common user, but still no luck.
I can run this vm only by using su >> pass >> ./vmware
When I'm going as user to vmware / edit virtual machine settings/
hardware / scsi hard disk I get:
"Unable to retrieve disk information: Insufficient permission to access
file"
Setting up a VM with direct disk access as user fails too. When I try to
setup such a vm as user then I get almost the same message in the hard
disk dialog:
"Failed to load partitions for device /dev/sda: Insufficient permission
to access file"
Thus how to obtain the proper rights for a user?
Putting the 'user' into the disk group doesn't work.
