open-vm-tools on trusty changed from the development snapshot series which this bug was opened against to the release series. Testing with the released package does not recreate the issue.

This something I'll probably wait till upstream releases a new version.

I've uploaded a new version of your patch, Michael. This time with adjusted for locations within the package itself. I just have to add the Name and Description lines. That'll be done after I installed the updated package. Also, I've linked this bug report to my prep branch, which has a recipe that will build the working copy (with the combined tar.gz) to one of my Virtual Repo. ** Patch added: 0008-linux-312-fixes.patch https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/open-vm-tools/+bug/1254931/+attachment/3933927/+files/0008-linux-312-fixes.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to open-vm-tools in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1254931 Title: open-vm-tools-dkms 2013.09.16-1328054-0ubuntu2: open-vm-tools kernel module failed to build [error: incompatible types when assigning to type ‘kgid_t’ from type ‘int’] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/open-vm-tools/+bug/1254931/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

Here is a patch I use to compile the open-vm-tools modules on trusty (linux 3.12). It's a mix of a patch I found on the internet [0] and some changes for uid_t - kuid_t and gid_t - kgid_t based on information I found in the linux headers. So it would be good if someone familiar with the kernel took a look on this patch. I mostly use the vmhgfs module to mount the shared folders from VMWare and didn't have an problems with this patch yet. 0: http://dominator008.com/constructionyard/2013/10/03/vmware-9-0-2-vmblock-patch-for-linux-kernel-3-12/ ** Patch added: open-vm-tools-linux-3.12.diff https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/open-vm-tools/+bug/1254931/+attachment/3931681/+files/open-vm-tools-linux-3.12.diff -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to open-vm-tools in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1254931 Title: open-vm-tools-dkms 2013.09.16-1328054-0ubuntu2: open-vm-tools kernel module failed to build [error: incompatible types when assigning to type ‘kgid_t’ from type ‘int’] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/open-vm-tools/+bug/1254931/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
