It's called update42, you can google for "update42 vmware". You unpack the tar, compile the little C program and run it giving the installed VMWare binary, /usr/local/lib/vmware/bin/vmware, as a command line agument. It patches the binary so that it runs with Linux8 userland. --=20 Gr=FC=DFe, Georg.
