Hi,

i guess you are using a recent ubuntu linux to acces the vmware console.

This issue you are talking about is very usual in recent ubuntu accesing windows' vm from the web browser console.

If i'm right, you must define a variable to fix this problem.

You have to export this variable in the environment right after login such that it will be set before starting Firefox:

VMWARE_USE_SHIPPED_GTK=yes

Normally i set this variable in the /etc/profile like this:

export VMWARE_USE_SHIPPED_GTK=yes

Then i run in a text console:

source . ./etc/profile

Finally i run the firefox to access the vm's from the console and the issue should gone away

Un saludo/Regards,

Hi,

ok do the same again, but instead  VMWARE_USE_SHIPPED_GTK=yes use VMWARE_USE_SHIPPED_GTK=force

Remember to close and open firefox between changes.

Yes,

i have noticed it, but doesn't matter. Next time

i guess in the creation time, you didn't mark this discussion as question. Then it's not possible to award replies.

Finally you could install the vmware tools in the virtual ipcop firewall?

I hope you could
