On a -current machine from Oct 11 I could compile and install vmware
using the kse patches, but on startup I get
mp% vmware
Setting TMPDIR=/var/tmp.
Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
Xlib: Client is not authorized to connect to Server
Error: Can't open display: :0.0
mp% xhost +mp
mp being added to access control list
mp% vmware
Setting TMPDIR=/var/tmp.
after which vmare starts, but complains it cannot find the license.
If I start as root and copy the license into /etc/vmware/license, I get
at least the notice that the license is found, but not valid, so I guess
the problem is not the license but finding it.
This looks a bit like vmware does not see my home direcory. Is that
possible/has anyone seen this before??
Thanks for any help, Mathias
