VMware Fusion 1.1.3 Now Available

Fusion_boxshot_MedResVMware Fusion 1.1.3 is now generally available. 

The new update addresses six issues, including:

  • Boot Camp activation now works with Windows Vista SP1 Boot Camp partitions.
  • VMware Fusion 1.1.3 again allows users to enable unbuffered I/O, otherwise known as "Optimize for Mac OS Application Performance," on Mac OS X 10.5.3 now that Apple has addressed a bug that previously caused a hang under heavy disk load when unbuffered I/O was in use.
  • Fixes problem where sound would sometimes not work for VMs created with other VMware products including VMware Converter and VMware Workstation.
  • Fixes a problem in VMware Fusion 1.1.2 that caused Shared Folder mounting failures in Linux guest operating systems.
  • Fixes a problem where VMware Fusion did not distinguish between Traditional and Simplified Chinese so that if a system language preference was set to either Chinese version, Fusion would always present the Simplified Chinese interface.

    In VMware Fusion 1.1.3, this has been resolved and Simplified Chinese is only displayed on systems set to Simplified Chinese by default.
  • Updates the Simplified Chinese on-line help.

VMware Fusion 1.1.3 update is a FREE update for all existing VMware Fusion customers and the 1.1.3 update includes English, French, German, Japanese, and Simplified Chinese language support.

So, does 1.1.3 work with Ubuntu 8 again?

I opened a case on this but never got anywhere with it. 2 issues with VMware Fusion:

1) I always get prompted to reactivate Windows when I do these upgrades. I worry that my activations with MS will run out and they will give me a hard time getting running again.

2) I run Fusion in full screen mode in one of my Mac OS X Spaces. This allows me to switch between Mac & Vista quickly using the Spaces shortcuts. However, lots of the time when I come from Fusion back to Mac, my dock is gone. This is apparently because Fusion puts the OS in kiosk mode. I have MS remote desktop running full screen in another space and it never does this. Anything can be done?
