We recommend you upgrade your kernel to 2.2.17 or newer, or revert to 2.2.15 or older. Fine. 2) My problem after VMWare does a test on my DISPLAY: Your X server does not support XFree86 DGA accelerated graphics on your display hardware. Full-screen SVGA mode will not have acceleration. You may be able to download an updated XFree86 server at "http://www.vmware.com/xfree86".
