VMWare and Ubuntu 64 bits

Hello everybody!

Just a quick note for those who installed VMWare 64 bits on Ubuntu Hardy 64 bits.
If you are trying to start a virtual machine and gets an error like this one: "Cannot connect to peer process" or something like this, try to run the following command:

sudo apt-get install ia32-libs

For some reason, VMWare wants to run something related to 32 bits libraries. This worked
fine for me, and now I can start virtual machines normally.

I think this solution works for any 64 bits distribution.

See you!
