Re: VMware-4.5 workstation under Debian/testing?



I'm running sid 2.6.5, I had no problem with
VMware-4.5 . The guest OS was WinXP Pro. But I don't
have it anymore. Can't play games that need hardware
acceleration is the main reasons why I don't use it
anymore. I'd rather use wine.
Have a nice try.
