You might also consider upgrading your kernel to 2.6.18. I use BackupPC with an external USB HD. With the 2.6.17 the usb subsystem would choke before a full backup would complete. By "choke" I mean that 'ps' would show a 'D' state for all USB related processes. Once the USB subsystem had choked,

I figured it out... along with the vmmon module being built for the wrong kernel was the vmnet module. Once I built it for the right kernel, put it into place and ran "/etc/init.d/vmware start", it runs without error. Sorry for the intrusion. :) On Sun, Nov 12, 2006 at 02:21:08PM -0500, Michael
