Post Re: Slab popups all the time
this my workaround:

make a script:

name:xp-pro.sh
path file vmx:/var/lib/vmware/VirtualMachines/XP-Pro/XP-Pro.vmx

Code:
#!/bin/bash

sed 's/"file:\/\/\/var\/lib\/vmware\/VirtualMachines\/XP-Pro\/XP-Pro.vmx"/"\/var\/lib\/vmware\/VirtualMachines\/XP-Pro\/XP-Pro.vmx"/g' /home/utonto/.recently-used.xbel > /home/utonto/.recently-used.xbel.tmp
mv /home/utonto/.recently-used.xbel.tmp /home/utonto/.recently-used.xbel
chmod 600 /home/utonto/.recently-used.xbel

vmplayer /var/lib/vmware/VirtualMachines/XP-Pro/XP-Pro.vmx &
sleep 5

sed 's/"\/var\/lib\/vmware\/VirtualMachines\/XP-Pro\/XP-Pro.vmx"/"file:\/\/\/var\/lib\/vmware\/VirtualMachines\/XP-Pro\/XP-Pro.vmx"/g' /home/utonto/.recently-used.xbel > /home/utonto/.recently-used.xbel.tmp
mv /home/utonto/.recently-used.xbel.tmp /home/utonto/.recently-used.xbel
chmod 600 /home/utonto/.recently-used.xbel
give it the execute permission
chmod +x xp-pro.sh

make an alias

alias xp-pro='/path/xp-pro.sh'

put the alias in /home/utonto/.bashrc

start the virtul machine via shell whit "xp-pro"

bye bye
