Quoting Peter Van Lone
I did need to run the 101 any-any patch to get VMware Workstation to install, but that's not SuSE's problem.
what IS that patch? I have seen it mentioned several times with no explanation, and a google turns up cisco PIX firewall exceptions, or some such ...
Peter, The any-any package is a very unofficial and unsupported, ostensibly private package that patches the vmware-config.pl script and some of the (I believe) *.o files for building the VMware kernel modules. The developer is is very active on the VMware company forums. Dave, The need for the any-any patch is due to the change in kernels between 10.0 and 10.1. It's not SuSE's fault; SuSE doesn't even include VMware in its distro anymore. VMware typically lags a few months in newer kernel releases. I don't use USB support in our virtual machines, so the problem is not an inconvenience for me. All the best, Mark -- _________________________________________________________ A Message From... L.
