Hi,
officially Linux is NOT supported.
However you can try to generate a HTML5 console, have a look here http://www.virtuallyghetto.com/2013/09/how-to-generate-pre-authenticated-html5.html and if it still doesn't work, look here VMware KB: HTML5 virtual machine console fails to open after restarting VMware vCenter Server Appliance 5.5
Also, try working with Chrome.
