For reasons which escape me, my VMWare Server, which was working perfectly a week ago when I shut down my machine for vacation, no loner comes up with the formerly working Windows XP system - it just stays in the small window where it normally boots and does nothing.
The vmware serverd log shows nothing particularly interesting, and I have reconfigured the vmware twice to try and fix this (which interestingly enough could not find the vmware modules for my os either time). I am running CentOS 5.0 with all the latest updates through this morning, plus a 2.6.18-8.1.8 kernel with NTFS file system support compiled in as a module, and vmware server shows this: $ vmware -v /usr/lib/vmware/bin/vmware: /usr/lib/vmware/lib/libpng12.so.0/libpng12.so.0: no version information available (required by /usr/lib/libcairo.so.2) VMware Server 1.0.3 build-44356 (Not sure what that note about libpng12 means....) Here is the server log's tail: Jul 30 17:57:48: app| SP: Retrieved username: mhr Jul 30 17:57:54: app| Adding to list of running vms: /F/vmware/Windows XP Professional/Windows XP Professional.vmx Jul 30 17:57:54: app| Attempting to launch vmx : /F/vmware/Windows XP Professional/Windows XP Professional.vmx Jul 30 17:57:55: app| New connection on socket server-vmxvmdb from host localhost (ip address: local) , user: mhr Jul 30 17:57:55: app| Connection from : /F/vmware/Windows XP Professional/Windows XP Professional.vmx Jul 30 17:57:55: app| Setting up autoDetect info.

Any suggestions or clues? This is the first glitch I've had with vmware server on CentOS 5. Thanks. mhr
