| Hi Everyone,
Linux VMware are all new to me.
When I try to install into a virutal machine I get the following error.
Please can anyone assist?
Thanks
'TrueColor at bits per pixel is not supporte.
Try adding '-cc 3' to your X Servers's command line.
Failed to initialize basic X interface vitual machine.'

Contact the VMware support. Have your registration available on phone.

Run the X server in 16bit mode and not 24bit (true color).
