I have just installed Fedora 7 on my system to try as a replacement for Slackware. One of the reasons was that I was hoping Fedora would be an easier host platform to install Vmware Workstation. Previously I had been running Vmware Workstation 5.5 on Slackware 11 and, although it's doable, you have to mess around with the startup scripts in /etc/rc.d to get it to work. My first attempt with Vmware 6.0 in the base Fedora didn't work, if you do a Google search for "Vmware 6 Fedora 7" you will find that many people have hit the same problem - low level TCP issues. However the very latest Vmware 6.01 and the very latest Fedora kernal (2.6.22.7-85.fc7-x86_64) work beautifully. Vmware installed without a hitch, started up within Fedora and picked up my XP guest from the Vmware 5.5 installation. So hoorah - or something! :-) -- Chris Green -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
