Created attachment 340922 [details] Build Log
There is a patch that I grabbed off ubuntu but it's not perfect, yes it builds but there are some major problems. First, I believe that the drag and drop functions have been moved into fuse so the vmblock module does not work correctly and the init script does not start or stop successfully. Having said that I still happen to be using it.
Created attachment 341186 [details] patch from ubuntu
Set VM_DRAG_AND_DROP to "no" in /etc/conf.d/vmware-tools, and it will work nicely. Doesn't the newest vmware clients and such use fuse now anyway? Not completely sure, but if someone knows if drag and drop works without vmblock, please do tell.
Will it be possible to get this patched/fixed? Right now open-vm-tools-kmod will not compile for 3.8.x kernels, even after playing the VMCI patch listed above.
I'm running this on gentoo-sources 3.8.7, and it compiles just fine with gcc 4.8.0... only those warnings about missing symbols that makes vmblock not work.
There are additional regression problems with compilation on hardened-sources, much like: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=386721, that still come up after applying the Ubuntu patch provided above.

Created attachment 350512 [details, diff] Putname patch for updated ebuild Changes syscall from putname to __putname in control.c
As per the file listing on the SourceForge page for this project, there was a new version out on 2013-04-24. I was successfully able to emerge this new version by creating my own repository, copying open-vm-tools-kmod-2012.12.26.958366.ebuild to open-vm-tools-kmod-2013.04.16.1098359.ebuild and then applying a patch to fix a putname syscall problem. This was all on the 3.8.13-gentoo kernel. The reason for the patch is because upon starting the service, I got this error: modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'vmblock': Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg) [ !! ] vmware-tools | * Mounting vmblock device ... vmware-tools |mount: mount point /proc/fs/vmblock/mountPoint does not exist [ !! ] And this is in my dmesg output: [ 43.559597] vmblock: Unknown symbol putname (err 0) I found info about this on https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/33835 and used the referenced gentoo patch. I change some paths in it to make it work correctly. I have attached the updated ebuilds and the patch.
plz release the ebuild - need this asap! thank you!
Should be fixed by open-vm-tools-kmod-2013.04.16.1098359 , please reopen if there are still problems.
