After upgrading Ubuntu to version 11, vmware-server-console stopped working - only gray window opens. After killing the process error message appears:
/usr/lib/vmware-server-console/bin/vmware-server-console: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libgio-2.0.so.0: undefined symbol: g_cclosure_marshal_VOID__VARIANT

Is there the way to make the program working?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Hello!

I have exactly the same problem with versions of vmware-server-console previous to 1.0.10.

However, with version 1.0.10 the console starts and respond normaly until i try to connect to a server or check for updates. It seems that something is wrong with the network :(

If i discover something more, i will post.

Good luck!

/usr/lib/vmware-server-console/bin/vmware-server-console: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libgio-2.0.so.0: undefined symbol: g_cclosure_marshal_VOID__VARIANT

Hello again!

Well, this is a very strange problem. As you can see in the bug report below, the behavior of the vmware console depends on the appearance theme that is selected:

Thank you. After changing the appearance wmware-server-console works fine.
