I'm having issues with VMWare causing a panic. I can't find any posts in the mailing \
lists  concerning this so here is my email. My system runs stable except for when I \
use VMWare.  I've been using VMWare for the past several months without incident. \
However, since I  updated the VMWare port in the past week, I think it has been \
causing my system to panic.  VMWare seems to be the only constant thing every time it \
does panic, so I'm assuming  that is the cause.

While running VMWare I get the following messages in the console:

razor kernel: linux: pid 2065 (vmware): ioctl fd=9, cmd=0x1268 ('',104) is not \
implemented

Also that is the last entry in the log before the panic. 



The only other entries I see in the logs in reference to VMWare is about loading \
vmmon except for the following:

kernel: vmmon: Vmx86_ReleaseVM: unlocked pages: 195015, unlocked dirtypages: 143294

Which I think is complaining about VMWare not being shutdown properly?



Here is my system info:

# uname -a
FreeBSD razor.chota.org 6.1-STABLE FreeBSD 6.1-STABLE #2: Fri May 12 20:40:51 EDT \
2006 root@razor.chota.org:/usr/src/sys/i386/compile/razor  i386


# ls /var/db/pkg | egrep '(linux_base|vmware)'
drwxr-xr-x    2 root  wheel       512 May 12 21:23 linux_base-8-8.0_14/
drwxr-xr-x    2 root  wheel       512 May 12 21:23 vmware3-3.2.1.2242_13,1/



Any ideas as to what is causing this or how to fix it? 
Thanks.
