I read this thread. Not familiar enough with VMWare yet to know
where/what this config file is, but I'll give it a whirl. Sounds like
it worked for 5.2.1 and 5.3 (which I couldn't get to work either)

:( Maybe if we all complained/offered help to debug issue to VMWare
about this they would fix it. They only officially support 4.9 as a
guest running on ESX.
