I just updated my main production (64-bit) machine to hardy.

Seems to be fine, except that when I re-installed vmware (which I had to
do), the installation seemed to go fine, but when I try to ru it I get:

----

Does anyone have any idea what that lot means and how to fix it?

no one seems to give me a definite answer about this, is vmware any better than the free alternatives available? i've heard some people complain about USB support, which isn't a problem since i rarely use USB in my virtual machines, but what about stability? vmware never crashed or did anything funny with me, on windows and linux, not a single problem with network even after kernel updates. i want to also ask about compatibility, are vmware's virtual machines compatible with virtualbox? and vice-versa?

thanks in advance

well I can not help on the compatibility but I use Virtualbox and run
both XP and Vista for purpose of user-support and all works very well.
USB-support is in the "non-OSE"-version so I am not using the one in the
repos, network is very smooth. Better or not I can not say, just that VB
works very well.

I can't answer all your questions...
I am on hardy aspire coreduo and xpress1200 and i
can't install vmware
That's why i turn to another
virtualbox.
USB works fine after a little "hack" on ubuntu
doc
with xp it"s very speedy
For other answers I don't know as I haven't any
appliances
Problem with vmware it's very heavy
regards

cairo expects to find libgcc_s.so.1 in /usr/lib/vmware/lib/
but your version of vmware installer for was not designed to work with your
version/installation of the cairo stuff (I don't even know what cairo or
vmware do, and I'm too lazy or tired now to learn about that now, furthermore
I don't have hardy, nor a 64 bit, so take my advice for what it is)

Probably you will find libgcc_s.so.1 elsewhere on your drive and be able to do
a symlink to libgcc_s.so.1 from /usr/lib/vmware/lib/

*required by /usr/lib32/libstdc++.so.6*
Use same technique as above.
The rest is only repetitions of the same merror messages.

Incest is alright if you keep it in the family.

Oops, sorry, I did it again, answered without checking for latest replies.
I had a quick glance at your link:
http://blog.fekw.de/2008/05/30/kubuntu-804-64bit-essential-apps-install-guide/5/

Since that gives the complete installation steps and it worked for you I can't
help you. *<[D
I also can't know what you did wrong the previous time and wether my strategy
would have worked.

It reads as if they provided a dummy libgcc_s.so.1 file that cairo wouldn't
even see??? or cairo sees first the eponyme folder and therefore fails to see
the file with the same name... something clumsy about this.
