I removed /etc/vmware/config and ~/.vmware and tried it again today and
now it's working.  I'm able to start up multiple VMs.  Must have had
some broken settings in there.


Although now when I try and change the memory settings and save them
vmware says "Unable to save host settings: No such file or directory".
I was unable to find this via google as well, has someone else seen it?
