Hi.

What's the status on this?  I have a multi-boot setup on PC which
has two 650 MHz Pentium 3's.  One system is freebsd-current as of
Apr 23rd, and vmware2 works fine on that.  (for ports it has
vmware2-2.0.4.1142 ,  rtc-2001.09.16.1 , and linux_base-7.1_2).

I also have a partition with freebsd-current from two or three days
ago, and all the latest versions of the ports.  Every time I try to
start vmware2 on the newer system, the hardware dies.  Sometimes it
automatically reboots, other times it freezes up and I have to
force-reboot it (sometimes by unplugging it from the wall).

If you're still looking for a ktrace from an earlier -current, let
me know how to get what you're looking for and I'll try to help.
