Running workstation 9 into a red hat 6.4 recently updated,
The symptom appear after the redhat upgrade 6.3 to 6.4, .
After taken a screenshot in my redhat, the windows of my vm close in the system tray. When I clic on the windows, it's opening and reclosed immediately.
Other threads are talking about bad compilation but I did find the good recipe,
Check the vm log.... I took a screenshot May 23, 15h19
