2025-09-16 : xf86-video-vmware driver removal
Author : Ghiunhan Mamut <venerix@redcorelinux.org>
With the introduction of newer Mesa releases, the legacy driver
x11-drivers/xf86-video-vmware has become incompatible and is no longer
maintained. Keeping this driver installed will cause conflicts when updating,
and in some cases, may break the OpenGL stack or prevent proper functioning of
the graphical environment.
To ensure a smooth upgrade process, the package must be marked for removal
before running updates. To do so, please run the following command:
emerge --deselect x11-drivers/xf86-video-vmware
Once the system update is complete, remember to also cleanup the orphaned
packages by running:
sisyphus autoremove
Modern versions of Mesa and the Linux kernel already provide built-in support
for VMware virtual graphics adapters through the vmwgfx driver in the kernel,
making xf86-video-vmware unnecessary. Removing it will prevent conflicts and
ensure continued compatibility with future Mesa updates.Please read the news using :
