So, what /is/ your configuration?
And what does the logfile look like? (/var/log/XFree86.0.log or something
like it -- it will tell us if it was compiled in or not, whether it tried
to initialize it or not, etc.)
And what version of VMWare are we talking about?
Could it be an old one that can only use DGA 1 and RH 7.3 used an X server
that supported DGA 1 whereas your current one only supports DGA 2?
Just an idea...
