At one time there was a need to setuid the vmware executable also. Are you trying to run the virtual machine as root? If not, will it start if you do?On Tue, 2008-06-10 at 15:01 -0400, max bianco wrote:On Mon, Jun 9, 2008 at 10:58 PM, Christopher A.

Has anyone else seen the following error on VMware Workstation 6.5b (build 91182) when trying to launch a virtual machine? ================================================ VMware Workstation unrecoverable error: (vcpu-0) VCPU 0 RunVM failed: Operation not permitted. A log file is available in "/opt/Virtual Machines/Windows XP Professional Test/vmware.log". A core file is available in "/<path to virtual machine>/core.#####".

You can also run the "vm-support" script in the Workstation folder directly. We will respond on the basis of your support entitlement. Unable to change virtual machine power state: Cannot find a valid peer process to connect to. ================================================ Not sure what the problem is. Running on a Quad-core Intel with 4GB RAM, plus the latest F9 kernel and patches. Ideas welcome...what does the log have to say?It's pretty long, and very routine. Here's what appears to be the key message though: Jun 10 14:38:26.427: vcpu-0| VCPU 0 RunVM failed: Operation not permitted. Jun 10 14:38:26.427: vcpu-0| Panic: can't get userlevel lock. After that, there are no other errors in the log. I'll do the VM Support Script and see what happens there as well...
