Hi,
I have installed Vmware Workstation 8.0.2 on a machine running Ubuntu 11.10, but during boot the boot procedure stops during the "Starting VMware services" - section.
I have something simular to this on my screen:
Starting VMware services:
Virtual machine monitor done
Virtual machine communication interface done
VM communication interface socket family done
Blocking file system done
Virtual ethernet done
VMware Authentication Daemon done
Shared Memory Available done
Starting Workstation server done
And then the screen just stops there, nothing more happends.
If i press the power button the system starts shutting down services, so the machine has not freezed, it has just stopped some how.
I am able to boot with a live usb, and mount my harddrive to watch some logs, but i have found nothing alarming(Could be that i am looking in the wrong files).
Have anyone experienced something simular? Or any tips on how to best debug this problem?
Big thanks in advance
