I think vmwglx doesn't work? haven't tried. I know there is ongoing work
to allow gnome-shell to work with a software stack, but don't know the
status of that.
I think you meant vmwgfx ...
In f15 beta + updates I see that the kernel module part is present and
I can load it:
[root@f15 ~]# lsmod|grep vm
vmwgfx 74164 0
ttm 55120 1 vmwgfx
drm 187648 2 vmwgfx,ttm
and in dmesg:
[ 332.683892] [drm] Initialized drm 1.1.0 20060810
But it seems I don't find the xorg part so the vmwgfx_drv.so for f15....
Only reference I found was something for fc13 on s390...:
http://s390.koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/rpminfo?rpmID=81666
[root@f15 ~]# yum search xorg-x11-drv-vmwgfx
Loaded plugins: langpacks, presto, refresh-packagekit
Warning: No matches found for: xorg-x11-drv-vmwgfx
No Matches found
I don't know if mesa is built in f15 with support for it...
I also founf a VMware thread:
http://communities.vmware.com/message/1544516
BTW: what video adapter should I use in virt-manager for the guest if
able to self-build support for vmwgfx_drv.so??
vmvga?
Thanks,
