@starfall07g, you must go to Preferences and choose "Do not verify server identity certificates"

I'm relatively new to arch and ran into an issue installing this. It was just that the vmware-keymaps was required to be installed first. I know it's listed in the dependencies above, but it was easily missed by me.

Once keymaps was installed it works just great.

Many thanks.

I guess you have an old file in your cache. Remove that and try again.

Can't build due to sha256sum fail on vmware-bundle.eclass

quite strange, as key in PKGBUILD seems to be correct

Updated url, please pull and retry.

The dependency for https://sources.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/gentoo-x86/eclass/vmware-bundle.eclass no longer exists.

I got this error message: "Failed to connect to the View Connection Server. The server provided an invalid certificate. The certificate authority is invalid or incorrect", while attempting to connect to VDI using the latest VMware distribution for Arch. When I went to Preference to clear the message, I got an http instead of https connection to the VDI. The same server address had an https connection in Chrome.

How can I solve the error while making secure connection? Concrete steps are very valuable.

I have some issues since version 5.0, mainly when I log in to my VDI, if I click anything, Horizon freezes and crashes the entire system so bad I have to reboot. The problem is that my company started to mandate the usage of the latest releases (which is ironic in a place where the most recent software is at least two years old) so I may not be able to use 5.0 for long. Any ideas? This is with the entire system updated this morning:

I'm having some USB issues I was hoping to get some help with. When I connect to a server, USB begins initializing before turning into a USB Unavailable message. I've installed vmware-horizon-usb and started vmware-horizon-usb.service. It seems there is some virtual channel not available for access.
