Add support for Workstation 17.6.1 #288

Open philipl opened 1 month ago

philipl commented 1 month ago

The only differences in 17.6.1 are changes that obsolete a few of the community patches. This works fine with 6.11.x.

There is also https://github.com/bytium/vm-host-modules/tree/17.6.1

@philipl, by any chance do you know how to deal with https://github.com/mkubecek/vmware-host-modules/issues/115 uninstalling?

philipl commented 1 month ago

I use dkms (for which I include the dkms.conf file in my branch) which provides automatic build install and uninstall support. It's what I'd recommend everyone use.

Continues to work with 6.12
