hello

Using SUSE 7.2

VMware 2.0.3 build 799

I have run the vmware-config.pl and tried to power on the software when
I get error

there is no valid license for this version, and if already obtained make
sure it is placed in the .vmware directory under your home directory
name the file "license"


I have tried all so far, tearing my hair out... :-(

                 Home/My name

                     |

Downloads   Kdesktop   Mail   Office 52    vmware

                                              |

                                       win98      license

                                              |

                                            win98cfg,log,disk




I also tried creating the vmware file as like before


                Home

                 |

          My name      vmware

                         |

                     license



I was sent the license e-mail after registering for 30 day license even
when not download latest version.


When I did download latest version I was sent another 30 day license
this looks exacting the same.

The only reason I am not using latest Vmware software is get problem as
it asks for C headers etc and also kernel problem etc.. which not know
what to do.

So I using version installed on Suse 7.2 Cd and only thing stopping it
running is it not seeing that I created licence file.


What Have I done wrong?
