VmWare always runs processes in the background, you probably have to kill of off those. You can do this with the KDE System Guard program, you'll find it in the SuSE work menu and in the System --> Info menu. You can look up the VmWare processes klick on all of them and Kill.
Thank you for your reply. I cannot see VMware under the 'Process'
Where do I have to look ??.
vmware starts a number of processes with different names that run in the background to support the main vmware process when you run it. These vmware support processes are also set to start up every time you boot. Here's a quick an dirty way to do it with a reboot: First, exit KDE; then, from a root console: # rm /etc/init.d/vmware # shutdown -r now # rpm -e VMware Since the script the starts the support processes has been removed, they will not be running after the reboot. Good luck, Dwight
