[OT] VMware and Ubuntu TT

[Richmond]

Are there any other people out there who just cannot control themselves?

Anyway . . . I cannot . . . and upgraded my UbuntuStudio 13.10 to 14.04 
"Troublesome Toothache LTS (Let me Tell you Something)" . . .
and, inevitably, found that VMware didn't want to play ball.

The above is NOT an April fool, but I feel fairly foolish having spent 
the better part of 2 hours hunting that down.
