Hi Accession,

I have a vm that's running linux mint, with the gui. My workstation has the
downloaded (can't rememeber the name, as I'm remote) VM console app. IT
dsiplayes in that fine.

That's one of the reasons I have so many vm's on my server, they take up
little cpu time.... Ram is abother matter though.

Really glad that you've now got a bit more to play with, with a better ESXi
experiance. #0)
