Description mike 2001-04-06 19:20:00 UTC

When starting vmware from the gnome panel menu "Run..." the app
initializes fine, but when hitting "Power On", the whole system
reboots itself.

Fix: 

Starting vmware from an xterm works fine.
How-To-Repeat: Using vmware2-2.0.3.799_1, enlightenment-0.16.5_5, and gnomecore-1.2.4,
load into the enlightenment environment.  Select "Run..." from the 
gnome panel menu, type "vmware".  When vmware loads select a profile
to use, then hit "Power On".  The whole system will freeze and reboot.

Does this also occur with recent versions of vmware/freebsd/gnome?
