I have built and installed vmware3 from a recent(3/Aug) cvsup'd ports tree and everything seems to go fine. On reboot I see these messages which seem to relate to vmware Aug 5 12:44:47 host kernel: vmmon: Module vmmon: registered with major=200 Aug 5 12:44:47 host kernel: vmmon: Module vmmon: initialized Aug 5 12:44:47 host kernel: vmnet1: Ethernet address: 00:bd:5b:5f:00:01 Aug 5 12:44:47 host kernel: vmnet1: promiscuous mode enabled however, when I try running vmware I get a missing library message # vmware Setting TMPDIR=/var/tmp. vmware-mks: error while loading shared libraries: libX11.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory vmware-ui: error while loading shared libraries: libX11.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory find indicates that the libraries are indeed present. # find / -name libX11.so\* ./usr/compat/linux/usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6 ./usr/compat/linux/usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6.2 ./usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6 ./usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so ./Programs/Putty0.58/lib/libX11.so.6 Anyone got any ideas what I'm doing wrong? What exactly should I be doing to get an XP machine image to run? -- Robin Becker
