Kernel – 6.11 Released, OK with latest NVIDIA, and Patched VMware..
Kernel 6.11 is out, and brief details of the latest changes since -rc7 are here: https://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/2409.1/09915.html
The latsest NVIDIA driver 560.35.03 compiles and runs OK, and the VMware patchset from https://github.com/64kramsystem/vmware-host-modules-fork compiles OK, and loads and runs correctly. (see separate article on the multiple forking of the original mkubecek patchset, since the Broadcom takeover..) Note that all testing is only done with the kernel.org version of the kernel source..

I just came here to add that this does NOT build on 560.35.03, unless you’re running a system with the gcc-14 compiler (24.04 or newer). So this kernel will install on 22.04 and earlier, but you can’t build any NVIDIA or kernel modules with it, including vmware-host-modules.
