Subject: [gentoo-user] VMware not running well

1 I have a 30-day license to evaluate this beast, and it is not going well.
2 I blame my own inexperience, not VMware, but it's still frustrating.
3
4 As things stand, I can start my virtual machine (the current one runs
5 Minix) only as root. I can start vmware as a user, but any attempt to
6 start my VM brings up a message about it not being able to connect
7 to its peer (whatever that is), and the VM does not start.
8
9 When I run as root, things seem better, but it complains that it was
10 unable to extablish an IP number for the simulated ethernet card
11 (networking is set up for NAT).
12
13 Any help?
