That's why I moved over to using VirtualBox instead of VMWare :-) it works much better overall for home use than VMWare, and I don't have to futz around with dodgy patches to get it to work on a new kernel (at least I haven't had to yet).
That's not always an option. For instance, VB does not support Win98, and VMW does.
True enough... but wow... does anyone still have something that must run on Win98 over say... XP?
I use VmWare for software development and testing. The products have to work in Win98, so we have to test in that platform. (along with every other Windows platform). You would be surprised how many Win98 machines are still in production in third world countries where budgets dictate that older machines remain in use as long as possible. -- If stupidity got us into this mess, then why can't it get us out? - Will Rogers -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
