You probably need to apply the vmware any-any patch (search on vmware.com); see www.vmware.com/community/message.jspa?messageID=439133 BTW, when you get around to upgrading to 2.6.17, you might need to check out www.vmware.com/community/thread.jspa?messageID=432775. I had to do these edits before VMWare worked for me on 2.6.17 + Debian. Good Luck, HTH -- Martin Hillyer -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
