[arch-general] vmnet fail to recompile when kernel upgrade
Today I upgraded kernel to 4.0.0-2, but when I restart ,I found that vmnet module can't be recompiled I use vmware workstation of version : 10.0.3 I search and find that all the thing about kernel 3.19 in arch wiki. # curl http://pastie.org/pastes/9934018/download -o /tmp/vmnet-3.19.patch # cd /usr/lib/vmware/modules/source # tar -xf vmnet.tar # patch -p0 -i /tmp/vmnet-3.19.patch # tar -cf vmnet.tar vmnet-only # vmware-modconfig �Cconsole �Cinstall-all But this method is not right with kernel 4.0.0-2. vmnet module can't be compiled successfully. I need a patch for kernel 4.0.0-2 so that I can use vmware normally. Thanks in advance. - mudongliang
Dear mudongliang,
The AUR package vmware-patch[1] may be helpful.
