What happened?
Nothiced that it was a different wu.

If you have this issue quick fix is up the vmware memory to around 800-1000 megs im gonna work on a fix and post it in the vmware thread by phelan this affects any vm not just mine that is using a low amount of memory.

The WU killed the VM. THis happens when a memory intensive WU rans out of memory allocated to the VM, you prob set it to 600mb, and it needs more.

There are ALOT NEW of VM killing WUs out there. So upping ur VM memory to about 800mbs should do it.

Good Luck.

Ok i got the fix done its pretty simple i will write it in step by step so its easy to understand. After it reboots on last step it should be back to folding with no problems again the other way to fix it is raise the memory vmware can use to 800-1000 megs. This is those of you using my ubuntu setup if your having a issue using another vmware setup you did you will need to up its ram in vmware.

1. screen -r "if you arent looking at the folding screen"
2. ctrl c "close folding"
3. rm -rf *
4. wget wolfe.mygamesonline.org/a2fix.tar
5. tar xf a2fix.tar
6. chmod 777 *
7. ./fah6 -configonly "change username to yours"
8. sudo reboot
