Have you applied the any-any patch? Nothing foolish about upgrading -- the feature set is constantly improving. Those patches are available here: ftp://platan.vc.cvut.cz/pub/vmware/ It's called vmware-any-any-update113.tar.gz Just unpack the file somewhere, and run runme.pl as root and follow the instructions. Someone reported that the 113 patch didn't work with the latest kernel on his box, and he had to revert to the 112 patch -- you'll have to google around to find that one, if that happens to you, but it's still available. Lots of info on this over on the vmware forums by the way. I just installed the latest server on my F7 box - no problems whatsoever. I'm not running FC5 so I can't speak to your system. But, the above won't harm anything so far as everything I've read states. -- Claude Jones Brunswick, MD, USA -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
