I am following up on this with VMWare also, but i did want to add this bit of information. With the 2.6.4 suse kernel, i was getting the following as the last message in the log before the syslogd was restarted upon reboot : May 9 04:56:27 saturn1 kernel: Badness in do_no_page at mm/memory.c:1455 I tried the kotd 2.6.5-11.15 and get the following : May 11 17:27:54 saturn1 kernel: Badness in do_no_page at mm/memory.c:1493 I attempted to try a stock kernel, but when i do my system doesn't boot. It goes into the maintenance login and tells me to run fsck because the root filesystem is mounted read only, or something to that effect. Is there something i need to do to a stock kernel to get it to boot into a SuSE installed system? Thanks, edward On Tue, 11 May 2004 15:55:50 +0200 Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> wrote:

I am having the same issue with 9.1 and VMWare 4.5.1.
My system is an MSI K8T Master2 FAR board with dual opteron 240. Everything else seems to be working fine (SATA, nVidia) but when i try to start VMWare the machine locks up.
I am going to give a stock kernel a try but would like to stick with the SuSE kernel if possible.
Has there been any update regarding this problem? Should i wait for the next SuSE kernel update via YOU?
Better would be to ask vmware about this. We do not claim to support their kernel modules.
