Package: open-vm-tools
Version: 1:8.4.2-261024-1
Severity: normal
Tags: squeeze
With a standard Squeeze install the following gets dumped onto the booting
console:
-(snip)-
Loading open-vm-tools modules: vmhgfsFATAL: Module vmhgfs not found.
vmmemctlFATAL: Module vmmemctl not found.
vmsyncFATAL: Module vmsync not found.
.
-(snip)-
...and with no apparent reason why that is. Host is ESXi 4.1 (free vSphere
License).
Sounds to me as if those modules had not been built or so.
