¿May I suggest the image being a virtualbox one instead of vmware?
Virtualbox is quite fast as well, and there are free (as in speech)
versions available for all major distros. Only problem is that the open
source does not support usb (but the commercial version is freely
downloadable and does).
Only free vmware nowadays are the player (no snapshots ability) and the
server (too heavyweight, based on tomcat + firefox plugin).

I have been using VirtualBox to run a Ubuntu guest for over a year
now. Works very well, although I have not tried to connect neo
directly to this instance. I ssh to another laptop running ubuntu
natively to which I connect the FR.

I've not used VirtualBox before, will have to take a look at it. I need to
work through the assembly once more anyway to document it better.
In the meantime I'll see about cleaning up a bit and figuring out how to
package the vmware image up as an appliance. (I'm using the free vmware
server, BTW, running under Ubuntu Hardy)
I applaud everything done here :-)
Ideally, I would like to see that I can run this on a PowerMac (G5) on
MacOS 10.5. If all else fails, I'll try to run it on the Ubuntu box I
have at home (but I need more RAM than the 128Mb it currently has), of
install stuff on it.
The reason I asked for this, was to have the 'one true dev.
environment', where 'we' could easily jump in and help the OM
developers! It would save tons of time if _one_ person did this,
instead of everyone on the mailing list...
