[Xastir] problems with Xastir-Hardy VM and vmware tools?

[Jason KG4WSV]

On further investigation, I was off target.  I rolled back to the VM
as-distributed, and xastir still crashed.

I still don't have the error (too much stuff to get ready for the
flight that just ended to troubleshoot).  The host machine was Vista
with a version of VMware downloaded in the last couple of weeks.  I'm
leaning toward blaming Vista, but then my knee-jerk reaction is to
blame windows for anything that goes wrong, just because that is
usually the correct answer. (:

I'll try to play with it on my intel mac at work next week and see if
it behaves any better (or if not, I can at least capture the error
message this time).
