VMware Error after upgrade

All the information I found pointed to vmware having software issues 
with how it used xcb libs. The only solution I could find was to 
downgrade to the old xlib or get a version of vmware that was fixed. I 
opted for getting vmware 6 beta (I use workstation) from vmware site. 6 
works very well, as well as having a 64 bit version. Right now I'm 
working on seeing if the usb stuff works. It looks like it will. I just 
got it to pick up my iPod. The performance is a lot better as well. Next 
I'm looking at setting up that remote desktop you can do with kvm. Where 
you can run the vmware in the background and access the apps like 
they're on Linux.
