    Which version did you try? I tried the VMware version and the stick version. But none worked.

    I tried the VMware version, it didn't work for me either, it said it installed VMware tools for linux but I couldn't get past the initial network screen.

    I haven't played much with it after that.

    Well, it seems you have to add this line,

    Code:
    ethernet0.virtualDev = "e1000"
    at the bottom of the .vmx file when opened in notepad.

    Got it to work, but I'm not that impressed so far.
