Fedora 40: the last four(!) kernels fail - also the latest kernel 6.10-7-200.fc40.x86_64

["Walter H. via users" <users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

just what had been said by some else
(Maarten Hoes <hoes.maarten@xxxxxxxxx>)

"Just to do some verification, I tried running an Arch Linux guest with kernel 6.10.6 using the same VMWare Workstation install, and that boots perfectly fine.

So whatever this turns out to be, it's not just a simple 'VMWare needs to be updated for the latest kernel' issue: latest Arch seems to be doing something different here than Fedora 40, resulting in the fact that the same kernel will boot in Arch and not in Fedora (and this needs to be investigated). Either 
that or, I have made different configuration choices when creating these VM's (I cannot recall what choices I made during VM configuration for Arch)."

when will this be fixed?

These three kernels

kernel-6.10.4-200.fc40.x86_64
kernel-6.10.5-200.fc40.x86_64
kernel-6.10.6-200.fc40.x86_64

won't start my VM properly, ends in a black screen,
where I can see mouse moventments, and that was it ...
no login, nothing;

kernel-6.10.3-200.fc40.x86_64 works fine

using LXDM

Thanks
