VMware Workstation 8.0.1 Released
VMware Workstation 8.0.1 update has been released.
In the new Free update for VMware Workstation 8.0 users, there are some enhancements and performance improvements. I reported on some detailed new features in the VMware Workstation 8 in my post here.
In case you’re interested in testing other Hypervisors, like Hyper-V, you can follow this post where I’m showing How-to Run Hyper-V inside of VMware Workstation.
What’s New in the new release?
- Graphics performance and compatibility enhancements.
- Improvements in creating and using shared virtual machines and remote virtual machines.
- Ubuntu 11.10 is officially supported as a guest operating system.
- Disk and memory management issues have been addressed.
- Many customer-reported issues have been resolved.
There were some bug fixes resolved. For example:
- Windows 7 guest installation failed after powering on the virtual machine with the error A required CD/DVD drive device driver is missing. If you have a driver floppy disk, CD, DVD, or USB flash drive, please insert it now.
- VMware Tools failed with the message VMware Tools unrecoverable error.
Or that if remote virtual machines were open, you could not shut down the Windows hosts.
