/mnt/hgfs shared folder not working on kernel 3.13.0 #6

Closed ruymbeke closed 10 years ago

ruymbeke commented 10 years ago

Hello, I finally got the latest VMwareTools-9.6.1-1378637.tar.gz (VMWare Workstation 10.0.1) to compile with the Linux Kernel 3.13.0 and run properly on the latest Knoppix 7.3.0 using your patches except that the very useful /mnt/hgfs shared folder does dot work: ls -al /mnt/hgfs ==> "ls: cannot open directory /mnt/hgfs: Not a directory" All suggestions are welcome (besides waiting for the next VMware Tools release ;-) Thanks, Gilles

Thank you for the report. Now we know it's the 3.13 kernel, and not distribution specific.

I will close this, as it's a duplicate of #4.
