Cannot start vmware anymore, get the following error
Quote:
# vmware
process 10754: Attempt to remove filter function 0xb5a293a0 user data 0x83c54d8, but no such filter has been added
D-Bus not built with -rdynamic so unable to print a backtrace

Workaround I used to do was run "/etc/init.d/dbus stop" then startup vmware. But now since I updated xorg I cannot preform the command "/etc/init.d/dbus stop" without xorg shutting down :(
Any idea on how to solve the above vmware error?

Quote:
vmware -v
VMware Workstation 6.0.3 build-80004

Having the same issue with Vmware, but I'm having issue with Hal. What are the requirements for hald to run? When I attempt to start it I get the error:




* Service hald starting [ !! ]
* ERROR: hald failed to start

Thanks

What do you get when you try and start hald manually?
Code:
hald --daemon=no --verbose=yes
