On my Leopard laptop, I very rarely use VMware Fusion, and having it automatically always run several processes seems a waste. Is there a way to do postpone initialization of these processes until I actually need them (i.e. when I want to run a VM?)
These are the processes I am thinking of :
root 103 0.0 0.0 76492 376 ?? Ss 1:17AM 0:00.01 /Library/Application Support/VMware Fusion/vmnet-bridge -d /var/run/vmnet-bridge-vmnet0.pid vmnet0
root 100 0.0 0.0 75700 208 ?? Ss 1:17AM 0:00.03 /Library/Application Support/VMware Fusion/vmnet-dhcpd -cf /Library/Application Support/VMware Fusion/vmnet1/dhcpd.conf -lf /var/db/vmware/vmnet-dhcpd-vmnet1.leases -pf /var/run/vmnet-dhcpd-vmnet1.pid vmnet1
root 96 0.0 0.0 76432 152 ?? Ss 1:17AM 0:00.00 /Library/Application Support/VMware Fusion/vmnet-netifup -d /var/run/vmnet-netif-vmnet1.pid vmnet1 vmnet1
root 93 0.0 0.0 76432 152 ?? Ss 1:17AM 0:00.00 /Library/Application Support/VMware Fusion/vmnet-netifup -d /var/run/vmnet-netif-vmnet8.pid vmnet8 vmnet8
root 91 0.0 0.0 75704 208 ?? Ss 1:17AM 0:00.03 /Library/Application Support/VMware Fusion/vmnet-dhcpd -cf /Library/Application Support/VMware Fusion/vmnet8/dhcpd.conf -lf /var/db/vmware/vmnet-dhcpd-vmnet8.leases -pf /var/run/vmnet-dhcpd-vmnet8.pid vmnet8
root 85 0.0 0.0 75924 248 ?? Ss 1:17AM 0:00.31 /Library/Application Support/VMware Fusion/vmnet-natd -c /Library/Application Support/VMware Fusion/vmnet8/nat.conf -m /Library/Application Support/VMware Fusion/vmnet8/nat.mac -d /var/run/vmnet-natd-vmnet8.pid vmnet8
Any info is appreciated.
