    Some prgrams won't work after upgrade

    After the upgrade from Edgy to Feisty Beta there is a lot of programs that won't work, the ones that I include:
    - VMWare (bouncing cursor and then, nothing)
    - Tovid (GUI) (bouncing cursor and then, nothing)
    - K3b will launch a Buffer underrun error (used Brasero instead)
    - Cedega will have issues mounting games discs
    - XQF will open twice

    Those are some of the issues that I found out, in any case I will not make a fresh install nor reinstall the programs yet. Maybe on future updates those problems will get solved.

    I can help with K3b as I just experienced an error on attempting to write. You need to run K3b setup again.

    After the upgrade did you reinstall the offending programs with those from Feisty repositories?

      I would guess that it due to the different kernal updates. I would wait for the final version. This is beta

      As far as vmware player is concerned do:
      sudo /usr/bin/vmware-config.pl in a terminal and it will recompile the vmware kernal headers. You will have to do this after evry kernal upgrade.

      Hope this helps

      Cheers
