Dear All,

I installed VMware onto my new Athlon machine with LM8.2. Everthing went fine until I 
tried to install Windows 95. It just gave me a disk error message, and making sure 
that the floppy was first to boot in the bios did not change it. It is VMware 2.0.4 
which worked well on my old Pemtium machine with LM8.2. Then things got worse. I, 
also, am having problems getting my license file recognized from root. Besides those 2 
things, I ended up with a permissions problem somehow, tried to fix it, and now all of 
my efforts with that give me this message:

VMware Workstation must be set-UID root, "/usr/bin/vmware" is not
Are you running /usr/bin/vmware from its distribution directory?
That copy of the program is not set-UID root.

Now I cannot even open VMware at all. How can I get the permissions to allow me, the 
only user and owner of this machine to use vmware. I am not new to vmware really but 
feel very new to it right now. 

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
Marcia
