Why are you using vmware-user? You are not explaining it all.

My guess is that your 11.3 is a guest system.

Please give complete info.

Thanks for the reply. Above is the full message. I am not sure what you mean when you mention guest but I have 11.3 fully installed.

If you have a plain 11.3, then remove vmware-user.
Else, explain why and what for you have vmware there.

When I first installed 11.3 it came with openoffice and about a year later Libre was installed through updates and that is when I got my problem. I did not install vmware it just came with updates. Where would I find vmware to un-install it?

rpm -qa | grep -i vmware

Are you running 11.3 under VMware, or on “bare metal”?

Sorry but I don’t know what this means ( Are you running 11.3 under VMware, or on “bare metal”?) I must have used 11.3 (Gnome) for over two years and was OK until Libre came in a upgrade. I have since
deleted it and got openoffice back but the bug thing is still there so I don’t know if I have
11.3 under VMware, or on “bare metal”?

When you turn on your machine, in order to get into 11.3, do you start
VMware? Do you a VMware product?

From his previous posts I gather “bare metal”.

That command is a query, not a delete. I doesn’t change anything. Now you
have to go into yast package management and delete that package.

Assuming, of course, that you are not running linux inside vmware. Ie, that
you are running on bare metal.

That is my suspicion, but I would like explicit confirmation. :slight_smile:

Yes I am without a doubt bare metal so I will have to ask again what will I have to look out for in yast package management to delete vmware.

Anything that has “vmware” in the package name is unneeded if you’re
installed on bare metal.
