Lawrence, You know, now that I think about it, I used to run VMWare Player in Fedora. I always had trouble getting it to compile. I found a thread somewhere that provided a way of modifying a config file so that it thought the version of Fedora it was running on was an older version, or something along those lines. I got it to work for a little while, but updating always seemed to break it. It has to do with the the kernel updates, which tend to cause VMWare Player and Workstation not to be able to compile on launch. Honestly (and this is probably not the place to say this!) I would suggest not running VMWare Workstaiton inside Fedora. Peronally, I’m running Fedora VM’s in ESXi. It’s free, but a separate piece of hardware will require an investment. Hope this helps! <JC> On Feb 14, 2014, at 8:38 PM, Lawrence E Graves <lgraves95@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > 2014-02-14T18:30:06.188-07:00| vthread-3| I120: Log for VMware Workstation pid=3421 version=10.0.1 build=build-1379776 option=Release > 2014-02-14T18:30:06.188-07:00| vthread-3| I120: The process is 64-bit. > 2014-02-14T18:30:06.188-07:00| vthread-3| I120: Host codepage=UTF-8 encoding=UTF-8 > 2014-02-14T18:30:06.188-07:00| vthread-3| I120: Host is Linux 3.13.2-200.fc20.x86_64 Fedora release 20 (Heisenbug) > 2014-02-14T18:30:06.184-07:00| vthread-3| I120: Msg_Reset: > 2014-02-14T18:30:06.184-07:00| vthread-3| I120: [msg.dictionary.load.openFailed] Cannot open file "/usr/lib/vmware/settings": No such file or directory. > 2014-02-14T18:30:06.184-07:00| vthread-3| I120: ---------------------------------------- > 2014-02-14T18:30:06.184-07:00| vthread-3| I120: PREF Optional preferences file not found at /usr/lib/vmware/settings.
