I was pretty excited about this and gave it a shot on my new install of 4.9-RELEASE. Everything seems to work as it does under -CURRENT except for the video refresh. When the virtual machine boots, I can't see the bios messages. When the OS starts up (Win2000Pro in this case), I get a blue background with the outline of the box containing the progress bar in the middle. There is nothing in it at all. When the login box comes up, the two entry boxes show up with a blinking cursor in the bottom one, but nothing else in that box. I can still see the blue background. When I run the mouse over this area it does update -- but only very messily. I get mouse cursor artifacts all over the place. If I can find where to type and what to click everything seems to be working; I just can't see it! I have option VFS_AIO in the kernel (as there isn't a kernel module for it under 4, apparently). I've recompiled it a few times but no dice. I uninstalled it and tried vmware2 and I do *not* have the refresh issues with it. Does anyone else have this problem? I don't have vmware3 under my -CURRENT install at the moment, but it didn't have this problem a few weeks ago when it was installed. All start up messages appear to be normal, but I'd be happy to provide any logs or messages.

It pretty much just "works" as long as you add a /compat/linux/etc/mtab file. The drawback is that only /compat/linux is backed up! Since this is the way it is supposed to work under FreeBSD, we have a problem with a backup application. Ideally you would like to back up from FreeBSD's notion of / and not Linux's. The only idea I can come up with is to make the FreeBSD file system available to Linux via some mount point. The restore operation will be tricky but this is a start. Is there a better way to do this?

Try localhost/unix:0 If you use localhost/unix:0, it will connect using a unix domain socket instead of a tcp socket. The probable reason you can't display to localhost:0 (nor `hostname`:0 I suspect) is that your X server is running with -nolisten tcp.

I should mention that I applied the newest "uncommited kernel patch" on top of the previous one. The strange thing is that there was only one file patched in shm-freebsd4-20031105.diff (sysv_shm.c) but there were 3 patched when I used shm-freebsd4-20031003.diff (linux_ipc.c & sysv_shm.c.orig & sysproto.h). Was this an omission? Thinking this was so I applied over the top of the old one and then had to tweak sysv_shm.c when one of the three chunks didn't apply. That asside, the port is working *perfectly* for me now under 4.9-RELEASE; this is one happy camper!

I was getting a number of panics for Vmare2 with the "emulators/linux_base-8" package. Seems that folks may want to stay with the "emulators/linux_base" or "7" package.

But when I reboot, I get warnings such as Warning: driver "rtc" used unreserved major device number 202 Is this something I should be worried about? How do I fix this? I'm running 5.1 Release p10. Thanks, Bborie
