VMWare Server 2.0 Console not working

March 19th, 2009

I’ve had a few issues recently  opening a VMWare Server 2.0 web based console with Firefox 3.07 running on OpenSUSE 11.1.  The console session just didn’t appear, which is a problem when you can’t SSH into the target VM due to lack of networking.  The answer is obscure but works well:

VMWARE_USE_SHIPPED_GTK=TRUE firefox &

With this, the console works correctly as expected.  Lovely.
