Before running VMware Player for the first time, you need to configure
it by
invoking the following command: "/usr/bin/vmware-config.pl". Do you want
this
program to invoke the command for you now? [yes]
The following libraries could not be found on your system:
libX11.so.6
libXtst.so.6
libXext.so.6
libXrender.so.1
libz.so.1
You will need to install these manually before you can run VMware
Player.
but yet:
mkb@amd64:~$ locate libX11.so.6
/usr/lib/libX11.so.6
/usr/lib/libX11.so.6.2.0
So, I'm confused!
vmplayer is probably expecting the 32-bit libraries. Install ia32-libs
and ia32-libs-gtk and retry the installation of vmplayer.
Fantastic! Installing ia32-libs did the trick!
Now if only I could work out how to make some folders on my amd64 Debian
system appear on the WinXP virtual machine (without dragging them)!
Thanks! Michael
