FWIW - VMware Workstation 6.5 Beta runs impressively well on F9. I've
been using it for quite a while now. As long as you have installed
kernel-devel and kernel-headers, you're pretty much good to go.

I don't really like the .bundle installer bit in Workstation 6.5, but it
does seem to both install and uninstall cleanly. I've done that several
times with no issues. I'd still like to see them stick to RPM and Deb
(for the Ubuntu folks) packages instead.

Oh well...

Cheers,

Chris
