>Organization:
secion GmbH, Hamburg, Germany
>Environment:
running Win XP Pro in vmware3 port on FreeBSD 6.2(-STABLE)
>Description:
Since upgrading from FreeBSD 6.2-PRERELEASE (as of Nov, 8, 2006)
to FreeBSD 6.2-STABLE FreeBSD 6.2-PRERELEASE
/usr/ports/emulators/vmware3 does not run anymore.
The symptom is that running Windows XP Pro inside
vmware3 produces the message:
VMware Workstation Unrecoverable error: (VMX)
NOT_IMPLEMENTED F(717):1423
shortly after the initial (black) XP start screen
appears. This is reproducible.
A similar report exists in http://docs.FreeBSD.org/cgi/mid.cgi?20070311020841.U34774
As described in this report, disabling the
network made vmware run again, enabling
networking crashed it.
I updated world, kernel, ports, same effect.
When going back to the old 6.2-PRERELEASE kernel
(same userland, ports etc) the vmware port runs again.
>How-To-Repeat:
Run WXPPro in the vmware3 port under 6.2-STABLE.
>Fix:
None yet.
