I think that's right. I'm also having some trouble on an ESXi host with the vmxnet module. I also rebuilt the lucid vm (using kickstart btw) and only installed open-vm-dkms with no more luck. The net seems up but I'm not getting DNS resolution. Next would probably be to build from source. Any open-vm-tools developers using ubuntu? If so you can easily test lucid using testdrive: http://blog.dustinkirkland.com/2009/11/introducing-testdrive.html ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
