Hi MattS,

no progress sorry, as I hit catch-22...

Do get the VMWare VMTools Port built, I needed access to network, which I do
not have ... :-(

A bit of Murphy's law hit as well, as at the same time as finding the 11.3 bug
I also hit Ubuntu 19.10 kernel bug, which I also reported and have been working
to get this resolved.

Given current dead-lock with networking (and X-mas / new year break having
passed), I might try:

1. Create 11.3 build with VMWare Tools installed via VMWare and convert this to
KVM/QEMU VM via qemu-img utility and see if this works.

2. See if I can get full source code build going  ....


What we really need is person with serious FreeBSD Kernel / Driver contributor
to weigh in on this bug...

I report back on strategy (1) once later today, as this is relatively simple to
try.

Cheers,


John
