** Description changed: + FIX: + • Please sync open-vm-tools 2008.11.18-130226-1lenny1 from Lenny into Jaunty; the only difference from the current Jaunty version is this fix. + • A debdiff for an Intrepid SRU is posted in bug 302226. + + === + Binary package hint: open-vm-tools After installing open-vm-tools, the network will not come up automatically after a reboot. If the kernel modules have not been built yet, the open-vm-tools init script will rmmod the pcnet32 network driver, then try to modprobe vmxnet, and fail, leaving the system without networking. If the kernel modules have been built, the open-vm-tools init script will rmmod the pcnet32 network driver, then try to modprobe vmxnet, which works, but the network doesn't come up. You have to rmmod vmxnet then re-modprobe it, then /etc/init.d/networking restart to bring the network up. Seeing as most vmware guests are server, this is a serious issue, as it prevents automated startups.
