I guess that it is because 'paravirt_ops' was exported as GPL symbol, whereas the vmware module doen't declare any license.
I tried to add the following line: MODULE_LICENSE("GPL"); into vmmon.tar and vmnet.tar under /usr/lib/vmare/modules/source/, then it works. (but maybe will tear the copyright by VMWare Inc.) my kernel: 2.6.21-rc3 with CONFIG_PARAVIRT=y
2007/1/14, Jeff Chua <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
I recompiled the vmmon module under the new kernel with CONFIG_PARAVIRT=y. It compiled fine, but when loaded, it gives the unknown symbol warning. I shalll make it clear that this is not a kernel issue ... it's just vmware, but I don't know how to fix it, and needed help from the experts. Thanks, Jeff.
