[Bug 877871] Re: vmware workstation 8 causes 11.10 to hang on boot
This is also affecting me. It hung on up after the initial upgrade- install from 11.04 to 11.10 and now after the first kernel kernel update (3.0.0-12-generic = 3.0.0-13-generic). The irritating workaround is to boot into the last bootable kernel (3.0.0-12-generic in my case), uninstall using vmware (8.0.1 workstation) uninstall scripts, reboot into current kernel which will then boot, and reinstall vmware. Fortunately the vmware uninstaller leaves all vm's and settings in place, nevertheless it is a bit of a hassle. With verbose booting you can see the hang occurs on Starting Workstation Server Fail -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/877871 Title: vmware workstation 8 causes 11.10 to hang on boot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/877871/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Casper is the Ubuntu Live CD environment and since this bug deals with vmware workstation, which isn't on the Live CD, it is not related to casper. ** Package changed: casper (Ubuntu) = ubuntu -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/877871 Title: vmware workstation 8 causes 11.10 to hang on boot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/877871/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
