penSUSE 11.3 Milestone 7 (x86_64) vmware player GLib: gmem.c:137: failed to allocate 463363146879057

I just install vmware in my computer running M7, and it failed to start up …
once I click at the “end user agreement license” it does crash.
giving me this output :

GLib: gmem.c:137: failed to allocate 4633631468790572473 bytes

I tried to troubleshoot a bit but I cant find the solution to this

strace output:

mmap(NULL, 4633631468790575104, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = -1 ENOMEM (Cannot allocate memory)
brk(0x404df7455659f000) = 0x1034000
mmap(NULL, 4633631468790706176, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = -1 ENOMEM (Cannot allocate memory)
write(2, “GLib: gmem.c:137: failed to allo”…, 63GLib: gmem.c:137: failed to allocate 4633631468790572473 bytes
) = 63

THERE IS plenty of memory in my system… apparently a few apps in M7 have hit this problem too “GLib: gmem.c:137”

any ideas?

Yeah, but I don’t think you have 4214263 TiB of RAM.

Sounds like a systemic error in the apps or glib, or API mismatch.

If memory serves me well. Didn’t we update gtk2 from GNOME Factory?

Cheers!

any idea how to escalate this bug?
