Hi.. I've been using the vmware2 port for a year or so with few problems. However, after making several changes to my machine, I'm having a problem. When I click on poweron, everything freezes for 10 seconds or so, then my machine reboots.. no panic with coredump - just a reboot. About a week ago, I upgraded from XF86-3.3.6 to 4. VMware worked just after that, so I don't think it's related. I've also moved my mouse from the PS/2 port (with an adapter) to a USB port, but again vmware worked just after that (I had to specify the mouse device and protocol). It seems to have started just after trying the suspend option... after suspending and restarting vmware, it would crash. I eventually got vmware to power on once after that by fiddling with the configuration files so that I didn't have to resume the saved session. But, since then I haven't been able to power the vm on. I've tried deinstalling and reinstalling vmware, but that didn't help. Any other suggestions? I'm getting desperate to get this working again. Thank you. -matthew To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-emulation" in the body of the message
