Hi,
has somebody experience with the vmware display driver?

I have two different VMs (with different OS) which have the same issue:
After round tree days the VM use 100% CPU and can't be stopped (mostly). Only a kill -9 work.
The VM do nothing.

Both VMs use the vmware-driver for the display to get a bigger console.

I switched back without args-argument and the VM run still nearly 3 days without problems.

The proxmox-version:
Code:
pve-manager: 1.6-2 (pve-manager/1.6/5087)
running kernel: 2.6.32-4-pve
proxmox-ve-2.6.32: 1.6-19
