ERROR

FIX

this fixed fedora 7 64bit as well.

Applications > add remove software > search installed software for "dbus"

removed 32 bit version of the lib

dbus.i386 1.0.2-6.fc7 installed

then vmware starts again.

Not sure if this will help and it may be that someone has already mentioned this. All I did to correct this error was rename libpng12.so.0 in /usr/lib/vmware/lib/ to something else and created a link in /usr/lib/vmware/lib to the corresponding library in /usr/lib. The error went away and so far no issues.

I have still have problems with browsing. I am running SLED (Suse Linux Enterprise Desktop) SP2 and VMware Server. Creating new VM's works fine,.. till you are going to browse to ISO's or when browsing to import VM's.

Somebody using SLED (with SP2) and VMware server and having the same problems?
