This should take only a few minutes to fix by somebody who knows what they are doing. I'd do it, but I do not have vmware and have no desire to start. rtc.c already has the make_dev() calls, but they are in the wrong place. They need to be moved from rtc_attach() (called by rtc_open()) to init_module() and replace the cdevsw_add that is there. cdevsw_add and cdevsw_remove should be completely removed. This set of changes will work on 4.x too, so there are no big portability issues. Some of the folks on freebsd-emulation may be able to do it.

Семинар ориентирован на практиков, занимающихся вопросами возврата долгов и носит сугубо практический характер.

Or, you could try setting Win to use the native resolution of your screen - then, when you full-size it, it fills the screen and looks like you're running that OS.. :-/ However, if I run Doze @ 800x600 (for example) and full-screen it, I get black borders with Doze in the middle @ 800x600. You need to ensure that you /don't/ have the default line(s): # This loads the miscellaneous extensions module, and disables # initialisation of the XFree86-DGA extension within that module. SubSection "extmod" #Option "omit xfree86-dga" # don't initialise the DGA extension EndSubSection remove or comment out the xfree86-dga line, if you do. You do get: XFree86-DGA in the output of 'xdpyinfo', right? Also, check that /usr/local/lib/vmware/bin/vmware is installed SUID root.

I figure this one out. The modes in XF86Config must match "exactly", including the depths. I was running XFree86 with a depth of 24, which the SVGA vmware driver couldn't match. I had to change to 16 on X since I can't run it at 32. Vmware then complains about the mouse (I have a USB mouse and keyboard), but this complaint doesn't seem to matter as Vmware proceeds to run in fullscreen mode. Fullscreen mode is faster, but not all that much faster. I am a bit suprised, I ran Vmware long ago and it was "much" faster in this mode--but that was under Windows.
