This bug was fixed in the package open-vm-tools - 2011.03.28-387002-0ubuntu1
--------------- open-vm-tools (2011.03.28-387002-0ubuntu1) natty; urgency=low * Merge latest upstream git tag. This has the unlocked_ioctl change needed to fix dkms build failures (LP: #727342) * Changes in debian/rules: - work around a bug in toolbox/Makefile, where install-exec-hook is not happening. This needs to get fixed the right way. - don't install 'vmware-user' which seems to no longer exist - move /etc/xdg into open-vm-toolbox (which should be done using .install) * debian/open-vm-tools.init: add 'modprobe [-r] vmblock'. (LP: #332323) * debian/rules and debian/open-vm-toolbox.lintian-overrides: - Make vmware-user-suid-wrapper suid-root (LP: #332323) -- Serge Hallyn <serge.hal...@ubuntu.com> Thu, 31 Mar 2011 14:20:05 -0500 ** Changed in: open-vm-tools (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/332323 Title: vmware-user-suid-wrapper does not properly activate vmblock -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
