Which version of XFree86 are you running? I'm pretty certain that it's a problem with my X server. I've tried starting up vmware on a remote display and it works fine (although slow, of course). Whenever I try starting it on my local display, I still get the freezing of the mouse and machine rebooting. I'm using XFree86 4.1.0 from ports with the mga driver that comes with the distribution. Jason - do you have a similar configuration? -matthew To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-emulation" in the body of the message
