After you receive the last shinning server, 64 bits Processor, you are crazy to install VmWare Server and consolidated your old servers and make more virtual machines.
You start the install and after some steps it stuck on the license, but your license is ok….
The error that appear is:

sh: /usr/lib/vmware/bin/vmware-vmx: /lib/ld-linux.so.2: bad ELF interpreter: No such file or directory

What is the problem?

The binaries of the vmware are 64 bits capable, BUT some of them were compiled using i386 32 bits libraries.

So how you make this work?

Use yum to install..use this commands:

1 – yum install glibc.i686
2 – yum install xorg-x11-libs.i386

And remeber to go in to the BIOS and activate the Virtualization Option if the Processor is capable.
In the HP server it is located in Advanced Options – Processor Options – Intel Virtualization Technology -> enable

So you just finished installing your brand new distro, starts to browser some internet pages and the trackwhell doesnt work?

And you are so used using the trackwheel…

No problem….

use your preferred editor and put this line on the mouse section

Option “ZAxisMapping” “4 5″ 

My whole mouse block look like this but remember I use a cheap mouse, no money for better…

# Identifier and driver

Identifier  “Mouse1″
Driver      “mouse”
Option “Protocol” “Auto”
Option “Device”      “/dev/input/mice”
Option “ZAxisMapping” “4 5″

So if it really works to you leave a comment or if will feel good consider going to my amazon wish listÂ
