Has anyone else had this problem? Any fixes? VMWare 3.2.1 is pretty old, I would guess you are getting incompatibilities between the newer kernel and the older "hardware". The latest VMWare is now 4.5.1. I have recently run Fedora Core 1 on it and it works just fine for me. If you just want to see if the VMWare version is the problem I think they offer 30 day demo keys. That should be enough time to test everything out. The upgrade is $99 through their website. Thanks, mike
