vmware 4.5.1 in hoary

[Matthew Franz]

I've been running 4.5.2 build 8868 (the latest release) as a non-root
user and the only problem has been the udev issue?

What are the symptoms, error messages, etc? You should only need
root/sudo to do the install then install your key in ~/.vmware and it
should run just fine...

- mdf
