It seems that VMware released a new major version and they fixed, again, things addressed by the previous patches only there (asking so people to buy a new version again, in case of workstation). So all the previous patches are not needed for these anymore on newer kernel, except one little patch provided here. It [...]
Seems this time vmware didn’t give problems, instead it was virtualbox. It seems do_mmap was removed in this commit (and related ones) causing this: /tmp/vbox.0/r0drv/linux/memobj-r0drv-linux.c: In function ‘rtR0MemObjLinuxDoMmap’: /tmp/vbox.0/r0drv/linux/memobj-r0drv-linux.c:1150:9: error: implicit declaration of function ‘do_mmap’ make[2]: *** [/tmp/vbox.0/r0drv/linux/memobj-r0drv-linux.o] Error 1 Adding this piece of code at the top of the file with the error (it [...]

NOTICE: This patch works fine with 3.5.0 and 3.6.0-rc1 UPDATE: kwasik updated the previous 7.1.x/3.1.x patch with the changes detailed here and made a new patch so if you are using that version of vmware you can grab it ready from here Another version of the kernel another broken module… This time it was something [...]
UPDATE1: as noted in the comments, and as now I had the chance to test it, I’ve removed some useless includes from the patch Seems the drivers broke again with 3.4.0-rc1. According to git logs it seems someone dissected the asm/system.h header in several subfiles 3 days ago (so cannot really blame nvidia for this [...]

UPDATE: I’ve added a simple bash script which does the first way. Just pass to it the installer name and the arguments you would pass normally. For example in my case I would just do ./nvidiafixandrun.sh ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-295.09.run -K –kernel-name=3.3.0-rc1-custom or if you are doing a full install in the current kernel you would just do [...]
