And yes, the VM does nothing after I get my SVGA error. It doesn't ever start. I can just hit "power on" again, and it does the same thing. Never starts in any capacity. I have no real need to run VMs in full-screen mode - I am happy having them in a window (especially when a 1/4 screen window is actually 960x600, which is plenty large) ... so I am hoping I can just skip all the trivia related to multi-head and xinerama and xorg.conf edits ... those only matter if I want to go full-screen, right ? What further information can I give to you (or others) that can help troubleshoot vmware3-on-freebsd6.2 ? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
