[sles-beta] Problems installing SLES12 under VMware Player

[Waite, Dick]

Hi Simon,

If I run a new install it's also grand, works as expected, it's only on an Upgrade I get the X11 / display issues with mice and keyboard, but it's Updates I need to get my Apps ready for testing.

While we are chatting, VMware Tools Update, when do you run this? Do you push the refresh button or run from the command line or? I have a feeling in the water something is not quite right in this area. The VMware log has quite a lot to say in a -ve way about what is going on.

Just thought I'd report that Beta 10 seems to be okay under VMware Player 6.0.3 - I've installed it then restarted and shut down, making a few small changes in between, and it's behaved correctly.

Now to try a few things out.

Thanks,
Simon
