Sun Aug 24 19:35:41 CEST 2008 - dominique@leuenberger.net

- Added open-vm-tools-2008-08-08-2.6.27-kernel.patch to compile on
  more recent kernels (patch should be merged in next release)
  TODO: the modules vmci and vsock are not built yet
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Aug 22 16:49:41 CEST 2008 - dominique@leuenberger.net

- added packageand(open-vm-tools:xorg-x11) to Supplements
  of open-vm-tools-gui sub package

------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Aug 22 07:30:15 CEST 2008 - dominique@leuenberger.net

- Re-arranged comments for the configure line. Apparently, comments
   that appear in a line continuing on the next line, split using '\'
   break the flow

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Aug 20 23:02:15 CEST 2008 - dominique@leuenberger.net

- Added --without-kernel-modules to configure, as we take
  care of it on ourself using the loop, for the different
  kernel variants

- updated to 2008.08.08
  * Unity for X11 guests has been added. Unity is implemented within
    vmware-user and requires no additional setup beyond setting up the
    vmware-user application itself. Unity should work with Fusion 1.x
    releases as well as with the upcoming Workstation 6.5 release. Our
    in-house testing was with Linux guests, and they should mostly work.
    There is very little standing in the way of FreeBSD/Solaris support,
    though we've never built or tested Unity for those platforms.
  * The VMCI Linux kernel module has been added. This module provides
    high-speed datagram and socket interfaces for guest<->guest and
    host<->guest communication. It should work for all kernels beginning
    with 2.4, and for VMware products beginning with Workstation 6.5.
  * The VMCI sockets Linux kernel module has been added. It provides
    both datagram and stream socket interfaces to userlevel for use with
    VMCI. As with VMCI, it should work for kernels 2.4 or later, and for
    VMware products beginning with Workstation 6.5.
  * The command-line Toolbox has been added. This application provides
    the same functionality as the GTK Toolbox, but with a scriptable
    command-line interface. It also has some statistic retrieval commands
    that aren't found in the GTK Toolbox.
  * Fixed compilation of vmsync and vmmemctl Linux kernel modules on
    2.6.26. Thanks to Pavol Rusnak for the report (Sourceforge bug 2032683).
  * Fixed an issue with guestd's nicInfo updating mechanism. Thanks to
    Jason Lunz for the patch (not tracked on Sourceforge).
  * Fixed handling of $(DESTDIR) in automake. Thanks to Mike Auty for
    the patch (Sourceforge bug 2018802).
  * Fixed build of vmware-user using gtk 1.2. Thanks to Stephen Duncan
    for the report (Sourceforge bug 2014338).
  * Fixed compilation of lib/guestApp when using --without-x. Thanks to
    Martin Preishuber for the report (Sourceforge bug 2013568).
  * As usual, other bug fixes.

------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Jul 21 17:02:15 CEST 2008 - prusnak@suse.cz

- updated to 2008.07.01:
  * fixed a backwards time synchronization issue
  * fixed an issue where open-vm-tools configured via --without-x didn't
    compile (not tracked on Sourceforge)
  * one can now pass --without-kernel-modules, --with-kernel-release, and
    --with-linuxdir to the ./configure script
  * other bug fixes.
- branched open-vm-tools-gui subpackage with tools that need X

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Jun 12 15:58:33 CEST 2008 - prusnak@suse.cz

- open-vm-tools now requires vmware-kmp [bnc#397972]

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Jun  9 22:49:17 EEST 2008 - dominique-obs@leuenberger.net

- Updated to version 2008.06.03
  adopted spec file to new build structure layout (the binaries
  are now named correctly just after build and do not need to
  be renamed anymore)
- Replaced -werror patch with -fix-Werror-patch (submitted to 
  VMware for inclusion)

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Jun  2 11:11:17 CEST 2008 - prusnak@suse.cz

  * check whether /tmp/VMwareDnD exists and create it if necessary
  * use modules vmblock, vmmemctl, vmsync for better performance

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue May 27 21:00:00 EST 2008 - dominique-rpm@leuenberger.net

  a vmware host in xen.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Thu May 22 10:20:14 CEST 2008 - prusnak@suse.cz

- added Recommends: open-vm-tools to KMP preamble [bnc#391434]

Tue May 20 16:43:00 EET 2008 - dominique-rpm@leuenberger.net

- Added preamble for %suse_kernel_module_package in order to have

  The KMP is installed by Supplements: the hardware ID, and the KMP
  then pulls in the open-vm-tools package by Recommends (if available)

-------------------------------------------------------------------
