Bug Description

Binary package hint: open-vm-tools

Here we go again. Currently the modules for the open-vm-tools version in the Natty repo don't compile correctly. I want to bug in now so we have time to work on it. The only module showing is the vmw_balloon

Here's the info needed:

sudo dpkg -l | grep open-vm
ii open-vm-dkms 2010.06.16-268169-3ubuntu1 Source for VMware guest systems driver (DKMS)
ii open-vm-source 2010.06.16-268169-3ubuntu1 Source for VMware guest systems driver
ii open-vm-toolbox 2010.06.16-268169-3ubuntu1 tools and components for VMware guest systems (GUI tools)
ii open-vm-tools 2010.06.16-268169-3ubuntu1 tools and components for VMware guest systems (CLI tools)

I've done a little fixing up. I've added the Dependencies.txt and moved the dkms make log to a separate file. It has the build for the newest kernel in Natty (2.6.37-11).

Files will be uploaded now.
