Hello there,


is there any chance 2.6.29 kernels in Fedora 10 or 11 would be
make the use of VMware Workstation 5.5 possible without
patching/recompiling?

This following post presents a tiny patch for 2.6.29 kernels so that
VMWare 5.5 can be used (otherwise you have to use VMWare 6.x, meaning
paying the upgrade price):

For the moment I'm stuck w/ F10's 2.6.27 kernel, but might consider
upgrading to F11 if its latest kernel is OK for VMWare 5.5 or
eventually recompile the kernel (in F10 or F11).


Regards,
