May I ask which caveates you have in mind? Because I want to run xserver on the same vserver-guest, and did not find it listed in "Problematic Programs"... > The only problems you are likely to have with VMWare > is if it requires a kernel module or special access to kernel features / > devices. If it runs as a normal user space process you should be fine. VMware is listed in "Problematic Programs" with this info: > VMware Server needs the following capabilities to run correctly: > CAP_MKNOD > CAP_SYS_MODULE > CAP_SYS_ADMIN > CAP_SYS_NICE > CAP_NET_RAW > CAP_NET_ADMIN > CAP_IPC_OWNER > WARNING: this configuration reduces security So probably it could run. And I suppose VMware/workstation is not much different from VMware/server. Anyway I would be pleased to hear someone having personal experience with any of those two (Wine or VMware/workstation)...
