Hello all,

first of all thank you for the vmware3 port!

Unfortunately I cannot get networking to work inside a vmware
machine. I am running a (very) current 5.0-current SMP system
and am getting the folloing message during the startup of the
vmware engine:

Could not query bridging status on device /dev/vmnet0.
Please update your vmnet driver.

The modules are loaded:

 5    1 0xc68ad000 2000     vmnet.ko
 6    1 0xc6ad1000 15000    mga.ko

Any hints of what to try? Should it work?

Thank you

Michael
