I had to upgrade to 4.0-STABLE to make it work on my machine, but it does work, network, sound and all. Seems stable to me. You also *need* the linuxprocfs port installed and mounted for the thing to work. Currently I have it running Win 98. Thanks to everyone who put in the work to make this work! Colman [I've cc'ed this to -questions in the vague hope that future searches of the mail archive will pick it up ... I only worked this out by looking on freshports!] I noticed some people talking about the linux emulation and how good/bad i t can be and I just wondered, does anybody here have any experiences with th e vmware for linux software? I have been thinking of buying this, for those one or two windows programs that I need to use now and then. Just wondering, James. ------------------------------------------------------- ICQ #19675056 Public key available at: http://www.dreamscape.com/halstead/jh.asc ------------------------------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message --==_Exmh_2041810484P Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP MESSAGE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.1 (FreeBSD) Comment: Exmh version 2.1.1 02/28/2000 owGlVDuMHEUQ9Z0FEisNwilyUDZClqzdnsX4bN/xsbkDpEUIAXcI8Qt6Zmp3+nam a+jPzk2GHFiECEIEQo4RCQGIAJwCEQkJIUSkTogQ1T0zdo5ntZqe6qpXXfVe1yfJ 6a3tM1+/1t2y3/zwyNavf7tH56K2K7Fz9ZLAk7rcFc++eUDaoXazo67BPXB44tKm kko/A3kpjUX3nLczaXOlkkkyWUArLUi7VnoFrlQWOrQOTSE7tkKLVQVCCEi9NWlD xtkUa19JR8amm7qVBi8BR8lk0hh0rgONLQTHZMLxS2kCzAJyqaGWawTyTvB3KQtw BL5ZGVlgWF4W89nh0Qv7r74UvqKvctCSWQNxbJdMapmXSuMUMs/ovFkQ2ugx5ayu X1jyugAZ/lUl4BCxtmCdzKqYpUYRyn6HPO9bgosasbjIlSNUSvuTxlC+tLEAUJrj qgp7uJqBHa+XZKI7Nyu0jJJJSBxRD7wx3PqqiwVuYgHGax0c31Yadq8JOCqlXttw FNyg6UgjtCVB40O+CBxLDrixB5GTYDoXM1BVSx1W7y0ucII8v8BHij6MOPvQM3mK tB2xNnLlEUpqApB0sPTOGwSL0uQlN4+WwS2kUhUEm2LQVjHpjcrXySRU4JuogAXT wJWFo4wpmUvIOqiIonyYpqVBW0aZnPsgnBLCswBNTuUcZalGaJCaQIasYpTMAsw9 AqCXFxcRu15SCyuiIs1YMGoAdMM7iCrD6LeAY2+DXHSBBotprw2pu4yKDkq29Yyw BfCkQaNQ50E9ypWcfADE4d0LO1LdH8rS0gXT9ZHZDFFHCfSVL1mT3XiFpoNGyI54 geVgaokT6oJaVpghlj5rM/LCLULsb4RFblcbi+KmaHGvja/cL5AzTYP1zrfBLmu0 YnCa/b9nZOrgDXjiqd0rV3fmO1cG2+s+q1QOa+SBsGGZxJsk3d6wXTrX7KVp27ai MMgF5bJBkVOdlnzBHMoiPS4Fz5sHPWD/ixhHBG9p6zObG5XxkLMY7meQcJwcx2QK qunGywZx//BFQWY1BEa2z/v7sUGwmNliVsp8jcaeHy9OlE1/O3hmWCtXOB7h4+un H9oKk3YcxGe2v3v81FefvX/jzj/v/vnTzfn2p93Zp3/+8eHn16e+fHL++e+/Pfb9 5T9+Sb64vf9Revuvu//+Bw== =iOIi -----END PGP MESSAGE----- --==_Exmh_2041810484P-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
