I compiled app-emulation/vmware-workstation-6.0.4.93057 (previously I had vmware-workstation-5.5.6.80404 running normally) and after I try to run vmware or vmplayer binaries, I get: /opt/vmware/workstation/lib/bin/vmplayer: symbol lookup error: /opt/vmware/workstation/lib/lib/libvmwareui.so.0/libvmwareui.so.0: undefined symbol: _ZThn24_N4view10FieldEntry17delete_text_vfuncEii or /opt/vmware/workstation/lib/bin/vmware: symbol lookup error: /opt/vmware/workstation/lib/lib/libvmwareui.so.0/libvmwareui.so.0: undefined symbol: _ZThn24_N4view10FieldEntry17delete_text_vfuncEii Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.

I googled and found: http://princ3.wordpress.com/2007/05/30/vmware-workstation-60-on-gentoo/ Run it like this: VMWARE_USE_SHIPPED_GTK=yes vmware However I think it should be changed by default in a stable release.
Michal, please recompile libview, libsexymm and libsexy after you've compiled gtkmm with USE="accessibility". This should solve your problem without the need to set the VMWARE_USE_SHIPPED_GTK...
