[Bug 1272196] Re: vmhgfs doesn't work with linux 3.13 kernel
"The vmhgfs (VMWare Host<->Guest File System) module is no longer be supported by VMWare and it does not build on recent kernels." Robert, where did this information come from? According to Steve Goddard (VMware employee) in March 2014, "There has been a bug filed to track this issue and it will be addressed shortly."

This solution is bullshit, all other distributions inkluding Debian ship a working version of the vmhgfs module. Debian unstable might need 3.16 to build, though, I've removed patches for older kernels. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to open-vm-tools in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1272196 Title: vmhgfs doesn't work with linux 3.13 kernel To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/open-vm-tools/+bug/1272196/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

My branch for the code is @ lp:~rcj/ubuntu/trusty/open-vm-tools/lp1274157 Merge request https://code.launchpad.net/~rcj/ubuntu/trusty/open-vm-tools/lp1274157/+merge/205235 Build at https://launchpad.net/~rcj/+archive/testing/ The vmhgfs (VMWare Host-Guest File System) module is no longer be supported by VMWare and it does not build on recent kernels. This merge proposal drops the vmhgfs module from the package. This eliminates the dkms package as ithis modules was the last out-of-tree module still being shipped. In removing the dkms package I am cleaning up the remaining man pages that referenced the kernel modules as well as a post-install script which had been updating the initramfs for the modules. While this does remove the out-of-tree vmhgfs kernel module, it retains the fuse code for hgfs and the mount helper which are necessary for file drag-and-drop support in open-vm-tools-desktop. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to open-vm-tools in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1272196 Title: vmhgfs doesn't work with linux 3.13 kernel To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/open-vm-tools/+bug/1272196/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
