Hello all,

I am running Vmware Workstation on SUSE 9.3 on an Opteron machine. I am experiencing severe stability problems and have no clue to what is going on. I do not see any useful messages in the system log.

Did any of you have better luck with Vmware on a configuration like mine?

I'm using vmware 5.0 on a 64-bit dual opteron with suse 9.3 and it works flawlessly. I typically run a single VM but I have run 4 separate VMs at the same time without a problem. In vmware 5 there are a couple of log/debug options you can turn on in the settings menu that might be helpful. Mark

I am running vmware 5.0 on a dual Opteron (MSI master2-far), with win98, win2000, suse 9.3 and solaris10 as guest OS. Disk files both locally and on NFS. I haven't seen any instability related to vmware, except that if you run out of disk space you get some really weird errors in the guest OS. I suggest that you try asking in the vmware newsgroups or message boards - they are quite helpful.
