I am trying to get VMware3 working under 5.0 but its plagued with problems.
I downloaded the uncommitted kernel patch and ran patch <
linux.shm.patch-cvs-freebsd5-20030329 and did a make buildkernel but I got:
cc -c -O -pipe -mcpu=pentiumpro -Wall -Wredundant-decls -Wnested-externs

/usr/src/sys/kern/sysv_shm.c:327: too many arguments to function

I would greatly appreciate it if someone can give me an exact procedure on
how to get it running.

I attempted to do it without any patching, it installed fine, but on reboot
vmware.sh caused a problem where I lost my console
