Linux VMI Interface posted: Jun 16, 2007 11:29 AM

I have been running Fedora 7 as a Linux Guest on Workstation 6 on Windows XP host and haven't had many issues to date except the rare hang where my host PC would simply hang up and not even Ctrl-Alt-Delete will do anything.

However, my question is with regards to the linux vmi hooks. Fedora 7 now runs 2.6.21 and seems to be running pretty good on Workstation 6. My question is how can I verify that workstation 6 is using the vmi interface with the linux kernel? I don't see anything in dmesg or /proc/interrupts to give me an indication the interface is actually being used? Can anyone shed some light for me on this? Thanks in advance.
