Hi,
Is there someone who experienced issue running Fedora 10 on VMWare 6.5 ? for example when i switch on the effects for desktop, everything becomes black or white... and i can reinstall the whole F10 :-(
Unfortunately, the VMware video drivers for F10 do not support the required acceleration needed to run Desktop Effects when running F10 in a VM on Workstation 6.5. That's why you're getting the blank white screen.
F10 in a VM on Workstation 6.5 + Desktop Effects = Bad Idea.
Cheers,

thanks a lot Chris for your feedback. this is what i thought...
I have to say that before migrating to F10 i wanted to test it under VMWare 6.5 that's was the purpose.
