Hi

If you have a machine created with vmware 4, you can run it in vmware
5 without problems (at least i haven't noticed problems). Probably
player will still have support to "play" vmware 4 machines, but i
didn't tested it yet.

The machines created with vmware5 doesn't have rio, but they have
network, so you can drawterm to them.

I didn't tested the vesa driver with vmware 5.

Gabi
