When you run vmware-config.pl under a Openmosix kernel, it will fail at building vmnet with the message: Unable to make a vmnet module that can be loaded in the running kernel: /tmp/vmware-config2/vmnet.o: /tmp/vmware-config2/vmnet.o: unresolved symbol deputy_csum_partial_copy_to_use Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Googling deputy_csum_partial_copy_to_use will bring you the link to the url given in this bug as ranked #1. I personaly found it was less trouble to simply cut & paste the files manualy, but it would be nice if emerge would do it out of the box and I would have not been aware at all of this Openmosix problem.
