Sadly I think that a lot of the VM products are ignoring FreeBSD. I
don't think VMWare is at all interested in supporting this OS. There
is a similar thread over on Parallels forums. People keep asking and
keep getting ignored. I have no idea why.

I'm still waiting for the day when I can run FreeBSD as my main
desktop OS, and have a virtual machine with Win XP and 3D acceleration
for gaming. Don't like dual-boot setups, but I don't see any progress
being made for the VM solution.
