Has anyone had any success getting the view client installed on a Ubuntu 14.04 x64 host? It's not in the canonical repo (it is in 12.04 x32)
I can get the client installed by doing the following:
dpkg --add-architecture i386
apt-get update
wget http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/universe/o/openssl098/libssl0.9.8_0.9.8o-7ubuntu3.1_i386.deb /opt
(using gdebi [apt-get install gdebi]
debi /opt//libssl0.9.8_0.9.8o-7ubuntu3.1_i386.deb
gdebi /opt/vmware-view-client_2.2.0-0ubuntu0.14.04_i386.deb
I can successfully connect using the client, however when I launch a VM I just get a blank console that eventually closes on its own. Error Log below:

Any thoughts?
