[xubuntu-users] Anyone using xubuntu as VMware guest?

[Tong Sun]

Hi,

Is anyone using xubuntu/ubuntu as VMware guest? Is its shared folders
working properly for you?

I found it is extremely slow or not working at all for me, and found many
similar complains:

Very slow network with Workstation 10 and Windows 8 / Windows 8.1
