Yes, but I can't remember exactly which version this broke on. It definitely worked all through 12.04 and in 12.10 up until whatever upgrade I happened to do on-or-about 2012-08-20 (when I filed the bug). I'm pretty diligent about doing once or twice daily upgrades on this machine, so it couldn't have been much past when the failure started to occur. >From the bug report, it looks like the failure started happening at about 3.5.0-11.11-generic. >I see that the vmwgfx driver is configured to be a module in the kernel config >file: >config.common.ubuntu:CONFIG_DRM_VMWGFX=m > >Can you also attach your /var/log/syslog file? See attached. Note from my previous comment that this is after a reboot disabling the /etc/modules entry. >One additional request, can you test the latest mainline kernel[0]? > >Thanks in advance > >[0] http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.6-rc4-quantal/ Yep, I'll give those a shot and report back. ** Attachment added: "syslog" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1039157/+attachment/3295012/+files/syslog -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-vmware in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1039157 Title: vmwgfx kernel module not loaded by default To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1039157/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
