And speaking of a VMware install..
Why were the VMware modules left -out- of the .166 kernel update?!
The km_vmware piece of shit doesn't work and neither does the module complilation from VMware themselves. Going back to the .144 kernel till 2.6 becomes stable.
What problems are you encountering? I've been running VMware-gsx-2.5.1-5336 on 2.4.21-166-smp4G (for a whopping 30 minutes or so) with no problems. I did find that the vmware-config.pl compiled _and_ installed vmmon and vmnet modules, so I'm not using any pre-supplied ones. The -99 and -144 kernel versions included these modules, and I thought I had used the SuSE-supplied ones by telling the vmware-config.pl script to not install its own, but I was not presented with that option with the -166 kernel installed.
