Yes. > Do you really think it's a waste of > bandwidth and processing power to let the vmware users discuss a > problem caused by a change in _Debian_? First of all this isn't a Debian-specific change but a change in glibc. Second vmware isn't Debian. Third Debian goes about free software, vmware isn't. This is clearly the wrong list, either go to some vmware list or go to the glibc lists if you think it's a bug in glibc. And yes, I think vmware is a waste of processing power and bandwith. Those posts also waste my time. > Even though I haven't tried plex86 and bochs in about a year I've never > heard anyone run Windows XP, FreeBSD, etc on any of them. > Is it at all possible? Useable? I got GNU/Linux to boot on plex86. The Hurd doesn't work on it at the moment (plex86 development is a bit stalled at the moment). IMHO it's very usable, bochs is more stable but slower. For all supported systems read the documentation of the packages.
