Rating: low

Affected Products:
openSUSE 12.1
openSUSE 11.4
______________________________________________________________________________
An update that has four recommended fixes can now be
installed.
Description:
This update fixes the following issues for open-vm-tools:
Fixes for 12.1 and 11.4:
- 703959: Build vmci as first module and copy
Modules.symvers to source of all subsequent modules to be
built. Fixes issues where vmhgfs for example does not
have all symbols available and fails to load
- 698181: Add a tools.conf to the package. All settings are
left to default except [guestinfo] / disable-perf-mon=1
- 748517: added call to vmware-rpctool in %preun to unset
the installed version
- Add vmhgfs-2011.12.20.patch: Fix build of vmhgfs module
with kernel 3.2.
- Update FSF address part in vmtoolsd header.
- Update to version 8.8.1 (Stable series):
- Updated code for compatibility with newer Linux kernel
releases and with newer NetworkManager releases.
- dropped vmxnet+kernel-3.0 (not needed anymore)
- 743130: build with PIE
Fixes for 11.4 only (already fixed in 12.1):
- Update to version 8.8.0 (Stable series):
- This release of open-vm-tools matches the VMware Tools
package released with Workstation 8.0 and Fusion 4.0.
It's targeted at desktop users who want the latest
features in (VMware's) Unity, HGFS and drag and drop
support.
- Add open-vm-tools-vmxnet+kernel-3.0.patch:
HAVE_NETDEV_PRIV is gone in kernel 3.0 and netdev_priv is
in kernel since 2.6.6.
- use set_permissions instead of run_permissions on 11.4+
- Update to version 2011.07.19:
- Fix an issue in the HGFS driver that could lead to a
kernel panic.
- Update some code to support new compiler and kernel
versions.
- Minor bug fixes and code cleanup.
- Changes from version 2011.06.27:
- A few enhancements to Unity: XFCE support, better
interaction with "the other" (Ubuntu's) Unity and
compositing window managers, better X error handling,
and a few bug fixes.
- few bug fixes in HGFS, and minor bug fixes in other
components.
- Otherwise, mostly code cleanup.
