All;
I am frustrated with VMware, I am running Fedora35 and it refuses to
compile since kernel 5.17.14-200.fc35.x86_64 so I am stuck running a
kernel 3+ updates behind. At this point I have to exclude the kernel
from any updates so the only kernel that VMware works with does not
get removed.
Are there any other virtualization tools that would continue to work,
or at least continue to work with more recent kernels? Is Xen an
option? Are there others?
Thanks in advance
I completely share your frustration. I run Windows 11 in a VM. I've
looked into switching in the past but ran into all kinds of license
issues for Windows and other tools. All the tools think I'm running
everything on a different system. I tried to explain to Microsoft what I
was doing -- no luck. Like talking to a brick wall.
I wrote up the patches for kernel 5.18. Check out

It doesn't fix the larger problem but it would help to get around the
immediate issue.
