Kernel 3.15-rc1 – Less Painful…
Just install Kernel 3.15-rc1 on the test system, and VMware 10.0.1 (with the vmnet patch, if you need it) and the latest NVIDIA driver – 337.12 – compile and load and run OK…
$ uname -a Linux rg6830l 3.15.0-rc1 #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon Apr 14 09:20:22 BST 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
One slight quirk that I did encounter, was that – on my test system – the VMware modules were not loaded until a few seconds after the initial boot prompt appeared, but were loaded OK, then.. Tested this on another system, and they loaded before the boot prompt appeared, as normal.. I should mention that I am running Fedora 20..
I will be installing this kernel version on some of my ARM systems, next..
