environment variables properly to run VMware, instead of installing it
as a symbolic link to ${PREFIX}/lib/vmware/bin/vmware.
Suggested by: Frank Mayhar <frank@exit.com>
Add $FreeBSD$ on the top of the Hints.FreeBSD file.
Add a link to the official VMware Product FAQ page.
- Remove post-install information from DESCR's.
- Replace /usr/local with ${PREFIX} in DESCR's and MESSAGE's.
- Remove unnecessary whitespace.
Pointed out by: portlint
- Mention full screen graphics mode works though it'll need due care not
to enter full screen text mode.
- Wording: vmware -> VMware
- Wording: tmpfs -> MFS
Some apps such as VMware for Linux would be happy with it.
The code was originally written by Vladimir N. Silyaev.
Note: It _includes_ Linux ioctl support, but basically it's
FreeBSD native stuff. I'm importing this into emulators
category for convevience' sake. Check it out.
- Correspond to VMware 2.0 Build 476 release (not beta)
- Support SMP kernel
- Install VMware tools floppies (for Windows and Linux)
- Add Hints.FreeBSD
- Mention my unofficial `rtc' port on post-install
- Raw disk may not work for the present
- etc.
Enjoy it!
- Make portlint satisfy
- Avoid creating files out of WRKDIR
- Remove the void directory "patch" (What ever was this?)
- Adjust whitespace
- Fix some ungrammatical wordings
- Modify COMMENT and DESCR
- Drop fakeprocfs support due to the import of Linux procfs to the base system
- Show MESSAGE after installation
- Change maintainer to the -emulation list because:
- Vladimir seems too busy or unreachable these days
- This port depends very much on Linux compatibility stuff
- Get it to check if the system has Linux procfs module and stop if not
PR: ports/16960 (add WWW to DESCR)
No response by: maintainer
- remove [buggy] dependencies from linuxprocfs port, when this
port doesn't exist in a system (it's a common situation, because
linuxprocfs port isn't included in the official port tree).
- remove Makefiles.inc.xxx at cleanup stage
- added message about loading kernel modules
- added warning when vmware runned with not super-user id
