Running Vmware onto Debian R31r2



Hi,

I have loaded Debian linux R31r2 onto a Sun
SparcUltra2, I have X windows working with all the
drivers. Thanks to the help I got from this forum. 

Now I do have another issue hopefully someone can help
me. I am trying to load vmware 5.0 onto this machine
with debian linux R31r2. It allows me to install it
but before I can use the vmware, I need to configure
it so I execute vmware-config. It gave me this error.

"Your processor does not support the ^cpuid
instruction. VMware Workstation will
not run on this system.

Execution aborted."

I dont understand what it means by this? Sorry I am
very new to linux. Appreciate all the help you gave
me.

Thanks in advance.
