VMware Player

VMware Player 发布了 2.0.x 的最新版本. 包括安全更新和bugfix

VMware Player 2.0.2 发布，只是 bugfix.

New in Version 2.0.2

Bugs Reported in VMware Player 2.0 and Fixed in This Release

* Hosts with AMD Duron processors might not be able to power on virtual machines. This problem resulted because Duron processors that are based on Athlon do not have Intel SSE (Streaming SIMD Extensions). (bug 183866)

* Ubuntu 7.04 virtual machines sometimes power off unexpectedly if paravirtual kernel support is enabled. (bug 190499)

今天一打开 VMware Player 就提示俺需要升级，阅读了一下 release notes，好像仅仅是修改了一些安全性的 bug..

很奇怪，为什么比 2.0 文件大了约30兆，现在安装程序已经 170M 了，实在诡异。
