The only problem we had with it was due to the time drifting... Because
the VM does not run 100% of the time, the clock can fall behind.  This was especially apparent on Fedora...

Hi all, I was looking through the hobbit man-pages and I didn't see anything about running hobbit on a VM.  We are currently doing this and we're having all kinds of issues with it.  I don't know if it's an Ubuntu problem, a Hobbit problem, or a VMWare problem, but I thought I would check here first and see if anyone out there is running Hobbit on a VM, or even better, running it on Ubuntu on a VM and see if they've
had any issues.
Henrik put together a VMWare appliance with Debian+Hobbit.  It's in the
Hobbitmon Files page on Sourceforge:

Roughly 250Mb...  I've tried it, and it works just fine.
