Just tried to compile and install the vmware modules on my 2.2.15-0.7mdk
kernel. No luck. It would seem that one of the modules wants a symbol
"best_memset" but it is not defined in the kernel. Here is the problem:
# insmod vmmon.o
vmmon.o: unresolved symbol best_memset
A peek at the kernel sources reveals that best_memset is defined in
arch/i386/lib/best_function.c and supposedly exported in
arch/i386/kernel/i386_ksyms.c when CONFIG_X86_CPU_OPTIMIZATIONS is
defined. The .config for the framebuffer version (the only one I
checked) of the kernel sure seems to have
CONFIG_X86_CPU_OPTIMIZATIONS=y.
Any idea what is going wrong here?
