Re: VMware-4.5 workstation under Debian/testing?
Hi Ishwar
I run vmware workstation on sid (upto date latest, you know the one that
unistalls samba and kde and messes with cups) with 2.6.6, and have done
on 2.6.5 for ages, and server out windows advanced server to upto 3
clients with it. There were some hassles getting it going initially, but
that was a previous build. The current build has no trouble compling the
vmnet modules etc. You'll need to have installed the kernel headers
package for the kernel you are using.
The only 2 cavets are my one attempt to use a usb device in windows
failed, and oneday after an apt-get dist-upgrade, my cd and dvd devices
suddenly appeared as removable devices, and won't let me use cd's as it
offers to format them. I haven't put any effort into fixing these issues
and may yet turn out to be trivial.
Best of luck
Glenn
