Hi everyone,

I'm having trouble starting Photon on QNX 6.4.0 running under VMware Server 2.0.0, 64-bit version.  The VMware server is
 installed on a 64-bit Linux CentOS 5.1 rack mount Dell PowerEdge server.

Our developers each have their own rack mount server where they run VMware to host a number of VMs containing different 
OS's and source branches that they are working on.  They attach remotely to the server from Windows machines.  For QNX 
VMs they usually have remote graphical access through VMware's remote console or QNX's Phindows.  Graphical access to 
the remote server's underlying CentOS is done using NX Free Remote Desktop.

The PowerEdge servers have graphics cards in them and are running a local copy of the XOrg desktop.  The local graphics 
driver is configured for 24 bit color.

We have been using the above setup for QNX 6.3.X for a few years now and really like it.  I just recently tried the 
first install of QNX 6.4.0 and found that Photon won't start up.

Does anyone have any ideas on what I should try to get Photon running on this system?  Below are copies of my sloginfo 
and display.conf file.  Thanks.

Chris.
