it does not support PCoIP for the time being. If you need a linux and bootable client theat supports PCoIP would be VDIBlaster.

You should take a look at this thread: http://communities.vmware.com/thread/262584?start=15&tstart=0

I was able to take these binaries and install the view client on a mint linux box (which is debian based) and with the help of this tutorial: http://sites.google.com/site/linuxvdi/

I was able to get USB redirection working as well.

Hi,

You may as well want to look at both of the following:

VMware View PCoIP Client on Ubuntu is finally here

As well as

VMware View PCoIP on Ubuntu How to

Although I was able to get this working on my Ubuntu box and use it without much of trouble and the way they packaged on both blogs are quite easy to install and get it working, it is very important to remember its not supported and might impose some legal issue to use them specially commercially. Same for the previous comment. You can try to it for fun or try to figure out a licensing agreement with the files owners, or just wait for the soon upcoming(hopefully) VMware View PCoIP client for Linux & Android as I am waiting for these my self too.

Please reward points if this help.
