Kernel – 5.7-rc1 is Out. Patched VMware OK, and Patch Available for NVIDIA..
Kernel 5.7-rc1 has been released, and brief details are here: http://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/2004.1/04252.html
There have been some reports of kernel crash on boot, so test with care.. My system (HP Z220) booted without any issues..
5.6-patched VMware 15.5.2 compiled and ran OK, although the latest NVIDIA – 440.82 – failed to compile, but thanks to Isaak I. Aleksandrov, there is already an interim patch/workaround for this, at: https://gitlab.com/snippets/1965550
I have briefly tested all this with Fedora 32 Plasma/KDE and VMware/WinXP guest, and so far everything seems to run as expected.
