am running Fedora 8( 2.6.23.1-49) with VMWare workstation
6.0.2(build-59824) on a T60p.
I found that Vmware would start up fine but if I tried to open an image
file I would recieve:
(vmware-tray:15135): Gtk-WARNING **: GModule initialization check
failed: Gtk+ version too old (micro mismatch)
/usr/lib/vmware/bin/vmware: symbol lookup error:
/usr/lib64/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/filesystems/libgnome-vfs.so: undefined
symbol: g_get_user_special_dir
The work around was to set VMWARE_USE_SHIPPED_GTK=no. This allowed me to
open up images I had previously created. Now when I tried to start up
the images I would get the "Version mismatch with vmmon module:
expecting 167.0, got 161.0". So I tried reinstalling vmware and not
running the any-any-update114 patch. Now, I do not get the version
mismatch error but my system just locks up and I have to hold down the
power button to reboot.
I tried downgrading to VMWare Workstation 6.0.0 and applying the
any-any-update114 but my system still locks up.
