Most messy. I did manage to get it to run vmware1 however. vmware1 should be marked broken, however, since the modules as-is lock up the kernel hard and require a hardware reset. --------------D08105A8AEAECE417F43DD70 Content-Type: text/x-vcard; charset=us-ascii; name="vivek.vcf" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Description: Card for Vivek Khera Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="vivek.vcf" begin:vcard n:Khera;Vivek tel;fax:301-545-6899 tel;work:301-545-6996 x-mozilla-html:TRUE url:http://www.khera.org/~vivek/ org:Khera Communications, Inc. version:2.1 email;internet:vivek@khera.org adr;quoted-printable:;;1445 Research Blvd=0D=0A5th Floor;Rockville;MD;20850;USA x-mozilla-cpt:;0 fn:Vivek Khera end:vcard --------------D08105A8AEAECE417F43DD70-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-emulation" in the body of the message
