When I try to open a virtual machine using either vmware workstation or
vmware player, vmware crashes and exits. I am running 64 bit Fedora
8(2.6.23.1-49) and VMWare-Workstation 6.0.2-59824.x86_64 on a T60p. I
ran the latest vmware-any-any update114. Has any one had this problem or
know of any possible causes?


The guest OS is crashing, or the VMware application is crashing?  Are
there any crash errors or messages?



The application crashes with the following message:
/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

ugh.  I think only vmware can fix this.  the any-any updates are just
for the kernel bits & vmware-config.pl portion, but this is a problem
with the GUI side.


Could it be that I am missing a library? I know when I installed vmware and ran the any-any-update it told me that I was missing libXtst.so. I d/l it and installed it but I am wondering if maybe there are more libraries I need?

Thanks,
