Has anyone tried VMWare Workstation 7.x on Fedora 15 running GNOME 3? Does it work?

I'm using Vmware Workstation 7.1.4 on Fedora 15 with Gnome3, it works well, no problem found!

I also tried it just now. Works fine but got some pesky warnings: the first one while installation saying hard limit of open files set to 1024, if I want to increase it to 4096. Second one was something about the yield() function being enabled vis sysctl. Did you get these warnings?

No! I got warning about hard limit same as Fedora 14. Which version of vmware you use? I run Vmware workstation 7.1.4 64bit!
P/S: for yield() function problem please see here http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/mic...rnalId=1027987

I never used VMWare Workstation on Fedora 14, so don't know about the F14 error. I am using VmWare Workstation 7.1.4 64 bit.

This is a warning not error, vmware warning about increase hard limit in /etc/security/limits.conf !Don't worry! I've used Vmware with Fedora 15 since May 24 to now...no problem found :-)

I hear that. Thanks for your input.

I can't install/upgrade from VMWare Workstation 7.1.0 to 7.1.4 on Fedora 15 x86_64.
It's not incompatible or extra kernel headers.

When I run the bundle, I get:
% ./VMware-Workstation-Full-7.1.4-385536.x86_64.bundle --console
Extracting VMware Installer...done.
