I then loaded a canned version of Ubuntu 64-bit. When I go into the Fusion Application and attempt to start the VM, the VM player flashes on the screen for a quick second and then leaves. I then take a look at running processes from OS-X to see if there's anything running that would lead me to believe that VM started and is running somewhere but there is nothing running. So I then go and navigate to the dir where Ubuntu is located and I notice that a vmx.lck directory with an 'M56360.lck' file in it. The directory and fie are created at the exact time I attempt to start the VM. Os I then delete the lck dir and lck file and reattempt to start and I get the same result. I then chmodd 777'd anything in the Ubuntu dir thinking it may be a permissions thing and still same result. I have validated that Fusion is licensed correctly and read the newbee doc for folks like me, this is my first experience with both an Apple PC an Fusion. I am familiar with ESX and UNIX. Anyone that can point me in the right direction I'd greatly appreciate it.
