tech VMWare and Ubuntu 9.04

Posted at 9:27 pm MDT to Technology

VMWare is being flakey. I'm not sure whether the problem is actually the interaction of VMWare with the new version of Ubuntu, or whether my problem is internal to one of the Windows images.

In either case, one I bring up the virtual machines on the laptop something hammers the drive and sucks up a lot of processor time.

I need to recheck some DNS settings that got muched during the Ubuntu upgrade, and tweak some network settings that can be different now that I'm back on my home network (I had to adjust a few things when I was in Mobile connecting through Comcast). But I don't think either of those is related to the resource hogging.

I'm going to try some troubleshooting tomorrow.
