Hi, I've had dealings with freedom on vmware. They know of it, but their response to me in the past was we're not going to support it, if jfw works great, if not, sorry, that's the impression I got. Thanks. Dave. On 2/11/11, Ryan Shugart <rshugart@pcisys.net> wrote:
It couldn't hurt, but I wouldn't hold your breath for a response. My guess is Freedom has never heard of VMWare, and they have other higher priorities, for better or worse. I'd say your best bet is to continue pushing VMWare, if they went to Freedom it might be different. Or is the person to push here Adobe, its their controls afterall. Its actually very difficult to say who sometimes, and quite frankly the habbit of companies to farm the blame off to someone else is really, well, frustrating. Ryan

I received a response from the VMWare support department this morning. They sent me a generic document from the Freedomscientific website for preparing Windows XP for Jaws 4.1. It was a slightly pointless instruction but I appreciate their effert.
I have replied again with a number of proposed solutions.
Firstly they could provide a way of disabling the flash control on a per session basis. Alternatively they could fix the flash control so that focus is not restricted to it.
Would you think there is any point reporting this to Freedom Scientific?

Andrew: This isn't the main interface, VMWare View is the VDI product. The VIC itself is still accessible, well as accessible as ever, in 4.1. Ryan

Hi,
Oh crap. Is that the main Vmware console in VCentre? We have a couple of ESX 3.5 hosts I was going to upgrade to ESXI 4.1 in the near future (I am very new to VmWare), what is the latest version that doesn't have the changed interface? On the other hand, HyperV is looking ever more attractive.
Andrew.

Good afternoon,
I was horrified and very annoyed to find that after updating to the latest version of VMWare View, the administrative site is flash based and I am unable to read everything that I need to access.
What the hell are these companies playing at!
Is it seriously too much to ask that they create interfaces that are accessible? Or at the very least not inaccessible? I don't mind having to work at things but I'm getting very tired of companies unknowingly putting obsticles in the way. Especially when I have a job to do.
Have any of you come across this in the latest version of the ESX related tools?
Before I do any more upgrading of our environment do you know if there is anything else I need to look out for?
I'm becoming a very intollerent person when it comes to these updates. Why and howe they made what was a reasonably nice interface to navigate around a completely inaccessible flash based tragity I just cant understand.
