I'll be giving it a try soon.8 November 09: Updgard to kernel 2.6.30.1 and add VM time offset of 0.
I've been running on VM7 and tried Player 3 for grins. They both support 4 cores so if you want to run a single 4-core smp on a quad it's easy to do (you could already do this on VM Workstation 6 with a little editing). They both work fine with no apparent difference in performance compared to the earlier versions.Anyone tried VMware 7 or Player 3 yet?
I hope it's ok to post his quote from another forumnotfred wrote:New kernel will support more hardware (especially more recent motherboard onboard ethernet controllers), it's not really a performance change. The VM time offset of 0 should help new installs in a VM work with the correct time zone to make monitoring in FAHMon (or similar) a lot easier - may not have to enable async clocks in FAHMon.
Can you point to the fix "tear" did and I'll see if I can include it in the next version. I just upgraded to Ubuntu 9.10 and it doesn't currently build (probably need to move up the glibc version) so the next version will fix the building issues.
