    Hi folks,

    Quite long time without visiting you guys, great to see that community is growing, good Job guys!

    I just got a new laptop and am installing Fedora 11 (Leonidas) and want it to try vmware, but there is an error coming out, see attached file.

    Here is my kernel location:

    Well, seems that workaround is not too simple, but I've found VirtualBox which came in .rpm format, and is already installed.

    Thank you guys.
