Joey, If it's vmware server, no issues installing it. If it's vmware workstation (which is I think what you are using) or GSX etc. it probably won't work with Ubuntu since it's not an officially supported host OS.
You have two options: First Option. If you still want to install vmware on Ubuntu, Then try downloading the "vmware any any" patch. You can download it by searching Google with "vmware any any" where the first hit is the place to download it. For help in installing it, view the second and below hits from Google. :) Please note that this will probably invalidate your Vmware support. It helped me to install vmware GSX on Debian, which is not an official host OS supported by Vmware. As for issues or problems, nothing so far since last year. Second Option. Call vmware support. They probably will tell you to go away since you are not using a supported Host OS in the first place. -- regards, Andre | http://www.varon.ca On 3/5/07, Joey S. Eisma <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
