Did you try with the free -as in beer- vmware server? Not the server.
I did not try 10.3 with it yet, but it is much more frequently updated and therefore way fresher than your vmware workstation 5.5 installation. I use the 5.5 workstation, which I have purchased and keep rather up-to-date. I currently run VMwareWorkstation-5.5.5-56455.
-- Roger Oberholtzer as far as I understood, the problem here is not that vmware runs on 10.3 (it definitely does). I understood that the problem here is that suse 10.3 does not run inside a vmware installation, neither on vmware 5.5 nor on vmware server 1.04 (the latter just tested very rudimentarily).
Yep. That is the problem. At least for me. It seems odd that no one on this list has tried to install 10.3 in vmware. I only recall a thread about installing vmware itself on 10.3. I know that a few European Linux mags (well, one at least) has started distributing vmware images of the various OSs instead of live DVDs. I guess they won't be doing that for 10.3. Unless they know something i don't know.
Kind regards Eberhard
