The problem is that open-vm-tools is compiled without procps support which leads to this annoying message (which is non fatal). Either compile the package with procps support or patch out the message from the source. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
