VMware problem...need help!

Ekj530 · Posted: Thu Sep 25, 2003 1:12 am Post subject: VMware problem...need help!

I am trying to install vmware. I emerged it and it emerged fine with no errors. I says that I have to run vmware-config.pl and when I do, it say that I have to read the EULA agreement first and to press enter to continue. I do and read it and at the end, is say [END] with no option to accept or anything else. I know there is more to it but it goes no further. Am I missing something or doing something stupid here? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

LOL! Thanks! I knew it had to be simple.

Worked like a charm.

I am at the place where I need to add a serial number. So, I went to the website to see how much it cost(i know, should have done that first, right?) Lo, and behold, it is freakin $300!!!!! Who would pay that? I mean, I just want to run a few windoze apps from inside my Linux OS without having to reboot. It a matter of convenience. But, for $300, I think I will reboot.....

Does anyone know of a more economical solution? Wine will not work, I do know that for sure. I need something similar to vmware.
