VMware has been contributing to making FreeBSD a first class citizen for their open source vmware tools.
As a continuing part of this contribution there's a new version of open-vm-tools in the works. The INO64 work in FreeBSD HEAD broke building open-vm-tools for HEAD/i386, and there was a kernel panic that affected HEAD/amd64. That has been addressed and vmware has started QA for the tools for FreeBSD 11.1-R and 10.3-R amd64 and i386. I've given this update a fair amount of testing and it gets a "works on my machine" certification from me. The new version is available as a port at https://people.freebsd.org/~jpaetzel/open-vm-tools.tar.gz . Feel free to give it a spin and please report any issues by filing a bug at https://bugs.freebsd.org/ If you tag the bug you create as ports emulators/open-vm-tools it will get auto-assigned to me. -- Thanks, Josh Paetzel _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
