Hello Jan, I've corrected the version info in the subject to 1.0.0.15-r2 as seen in the partial build.log. Please test against the current stable version in tree, 1.0.0.25-r1 and feel free to reopen if the problem persists. Michael
Hello, Thanks for the correction and advice. The stable version of modules (1.0.0.25-r1) does compile fine. For the record, this is what has to be done in order to make the vmware-player work with it: 1. The stable vmware-player insists on pulling in the old version of modules, which do not compile. So app-emulation/vmware-player ~x86 has to be added to the package.keywords file to enable the not yet stable version 2.5.4.246459. 2. emerge --config vmware-player has to be executed after the installation to configure the player; the network in particular would not work otherwise. 3. There seems to be a problem with mouse capturing inside the VM, the mouse gets released to the xfce4 desktop every time the cursor moves inside the VM. There is a workaround (reported for Ubuntu) -- adding a line export VMWARE_USE_SHIPPED_GTK=yes to the file /etc/vmware/bootstrap After doing these, all seems well.
