Here comes the rub:
1. Unlike 6.0.2, I don't see the virtual vmnetN devices under ifconfig. Is that correct? 2. The installation does not survive a reboot. After rebooting I can start the VMware Workstation, but I can't start the XP client. I get a spate of "/dev/vmmon" unavailable error messages. 3. None of the virtual vmnetN devices are loaded during reboot, as happened under 6.0.2, however vmmon and friends show up in modules.dep, so they are around somewhere.
I don't use workstation, but server. What you have to do there is run the service "rcvmware start", or configure it to load during boot (chkconfig vmware on). This script loads kernel modules and start the network things. The rpm version installs perfect, but you need to run "vmware-config.pl" as root to compile the kernel module if needed.
BTW, I have also posted a similar query to the relevant VMware discussion group, since it is not clear whether this is issue belongs to openSUSE or VMware.
There is an "opensuse-virtual" mail list. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
