VMWare Help, SVGA Problem
Hey, this problem is driving me absolutely nuts. I installed VMware /w Redhat 7.2. I installed the linux host tool set, and installed the latest version of Free86. I even downloaded the vmware svga driver. When I tried to run startx, I get this problem with the vmware config
VMWARE SVGA not found (read ID 0xfffffffffff)
None of the specified devices were deteced.
