I guess enough people haven't bugged VMWare enough to give us a native FreeBSD binary. I was one that purchased VMWare 2 for Linux and told them "I only bought this to run on FreeBSD, I'd really much rather have the real thing!" If anybody else is listening that has bought VMWare for Linux and is running it on FreeBSD, let them know! > Progress: > > The module is compiling and (un)loading cleanly. I have troubles > getting the binary running. Working on that. I assume because of the new features in vmware3 that the FreeBSD module is quite a bit more complex than the vmware2 module. Good luck getting it all working, and thanks! :-) -- Chris Dillon - cdillon@wolves.k12.mo.us - cdillon@inter-linc.net FreeBSD: The fastest and most stable server OS on the planet - Available for IA32 (Intel x86) and Alpha architectures - IA64, PowerPC, UltraSPARC, and ARM architectures under development - http://www.freebsd.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-emulation" in the body of the message
