I saw on it on debian-devel, it's a bug in VMWare because they relied on the bug in nice(). VMWare provided patches, but those are only for version 3 and because VMWare is non-free software, you can't patch it yourself. IMHO some people need to get plex86 in an usable state, relying on crappy non-free software is always bad. And for me a nice second-hand machine with the same price as a VMWare license works fine. :) I hope I don't get flamed like on debian-devel just because I say that non-free software is bad and you can expect such things with non-free software.
