Posting this in case anyone else runs across it.

vmware: ../../src/xcb_lock.c:77: _XGetXCBBuffer: Assertion `((int) ((xcb_req) - 
(dpy->request)) >= 0)' failed.

The fix was:

sudo cp /usr/lib/libpng12.so.0 /usr/lib/vmware/lib/libpng12.so.0/
sudo cp /lib/libgcc_s.so.1 /usr/lib/vmware/lib/libgcc_s.so.1

I get the exact same error even after copying / linking to the library files, although I found if I run "sudo vmware", the console starts up just fine...

Probably a permissions issue somewhere? I haven't had time to narrow it down yet...

Anyone else have any additional ideas or info?
