Title:
vmhgfs doesn't work with linux 3.13 kernel
Status in “open-vm-tools” package in Ubuntu:
In Progress
Bug description:
I'm using current trusty in a VMware image and with linux 3.13 the
vmhgfs module doesn't work anymore. I use it to easily exchange files
between my Windows desktop and the VM.
$ uname -a
Linux ubuntu 3.13.0-5-generic #20-Ubuntu SMP Mon Jan 20 19:56:38 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
$ sudo modprobe vmhgfs
$ sudo mount /mnt/hgfs/
$ ls /mnt/hgfs/
ls: cannot access /mnt/hgfs/: Not a directory
$ ls -l /mnt
total 3
dr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 4192 Jan 24 08:27 hgfs
Before the mounting or after unmounting /mnt/hgfs I can access that
directory without problems.
Folder sharing is enabled in the VM settings and works when I boot a
linux 3.12 kernel (linux-image-3.12.0-7-generic).
