--- Comment #1 from Andrew Engelbrecht sudoman@ninthfloor.org --- i am having this problem in debian sid with linux-image-amd64 3.13+56.
i added vmwgfx to /etc/modules, trying to follow the instruction to load the module at post, from here:
http://www.x.org/wiki/vmware/vmware3D/
however, that only gives me the bug earlier than Michael.

--- Comment #3 from Thomas Hellstrom thellstrom@vmware.com --- Hi!
The vmwgfx kernel module does not support devices without the pitchlock capability. Sorry. In that case you need to use the xf86-video-vmware driver standalone without kernel modesetting.
