When i run a vmware workstation windows 10 guest on an ext4 nvme drive, I
get a kernel crash. The same guest seems stable on an ext4 filesystem on a
spinning disk. Should i report this to kernel devs, and if so, how?

AFAI understand glibc-2.13-r4 (as in ~amd64 right now) is too new for
the vmware-binary?
Did I understand correctly?
Is there a workaround? Downgrading glibc is not the way to
G'day,
Using files pointed to from BGO, I have successfully installed
vmware-player and vmware-modules-238-r1 on my 64-bit gentoo system
running kernel 2.6.39-gentoo-r2
However, vmware-player won't start. Checking in
/var/tmp/vmware-relson, I found the following message:

Hi list,
I have to run windows most of the time on my main desktop for work
reasons, but every now and then I install a gentoo guest on vmware to
see how the latest DMs are coming along.
The current KDE4 is vastly improved from last time, extremely responsive
and everything is really nice...

Just wanted to point you vmware-users to a patch for vmware-modules:

Hi,
When starting VMware-Player I get the following message:
The host's Linux kernel yield() functionality is disabled.
Multiprocessor virtual machines exhibit degraded performance without
yield(). Choose 'OK' to enable the sysctl 'kernel.sched_compat_yield'
or 'Cancel' to continue without yiel
My principle for using vmware on Gentoo is; use the latest vmware, do not
use the latest kernel.
I'm using Workstation 7.1.2, which works well with 2.6.34, also works with
2.6.35 (but wants to rebuild one kernel module every time it runs, which I
havent tried to fix).

Hi all, looking for some serious vmware debugging help! I've had

the final command worked, where it didn't before, so I don't get why.
