Yes, that works fine for me (8.1/kde). Thank you.

One small problem remains, if you logout then login the console appears as
xconsole 2.
I have to run killall xconsole before leaving kde. In order to do that I
modified ksmserver as I did for 8.0 in order to solve
the problem of xconsole running once over two.

In this modification I included a test in order not to logout while vmware
is running.
