Hi, on F7,,I have vmware-server-1.0.3 installed {vmware-any-any-109}, and have a winXP guest vm. I start the vm when I boot my laptop. I bit later I return to the guest, and find it unusable - clicking anway doesn't seem to be noticed, or takes a stupid {minutes++} amount of time to happen. The guest has the vmware-tools installed. Meanwhile the disk is being continually accessed, and top shows that updatedb, and then other tasks are being run. Having these affect the normal operation of a vm guest isn't acceptable - especially since the indexing etc takes about 10-15 minutes, leaving the vm unusable. Is there a way to config it so that anacron doesn't instigate stuff while a vm guest is running ? Is there a way to automatically pause the processes started by anacron when a vm guest is brought to the foreground ? While disabling the anacron service would work, what I am after is letting it be enabled, but play nice with the other guys - the work I need to do.
