Just installed VMWare Workstation 3.2 tryout version and Knoppix 3.1 built on 2003-1-20. The host is a P4 running Windows XP with an Ati Radeon 9000.
I can boot Knoppix just fine. It boots to 1024x768 resolution and all is well. But if I specify a resolution in the boot prompt, like 1280x1024, the VMWare Window is somehow stretched to a much larger size and I have to scroll the display around? It is like the 1280x1024 resolution is somehow magnified on-screen. It persists if I go full-screen. How to get 1280x1024 normal size?
I have chosen bridged network from VMWare. Knoppix gets an IP from my DHCP server on my network, and can ping outside hosts. But any other protocol will not go through. No telnet, no traceroute, no surfing, nothing. The host computer has a software firewall but it creates no notifications about any traffic. The host can ping Knoppix and vice versa, but that is all. Any other protocol will not get through. How to enable full networking?
Any other VMWare+Knoppix tricks are sure welcome, too!
