When I was at the vmware website, browsing the "system requirements" it lis=
ted=20
older versions of both linux distributions and kernel versions. Perhaps tho=
se=20
were the "supported" settings and the versions outside of that are the=20
unsupported fare?

I never installed vmware, just simply too big while other vmanagers are muc=
h=20
smaller.

Thanks for the note though... maybe I'll have a look soon too.

Cheers.
