  • 1.  VMware Workstation 17.6.1 still showing linux guest laggings on Win11-23H2

    Posted 23 days ago

    As the title states, after installing VMware Workstation 17.6.1 I noticed laggings of text typing in the virtual console with both mint and lmde, but fedora typing in the virtual console looked normal.

    When booting guests (all) seems to be lagging just a bit here and there.

    Tried with mint 22 mate and LMDE 7 (Cinnamon) and Fedora Linux 40 (Cinnamon). Also editing source file in graphical editor went well, and saving changed file worked. Had no problems with Freebsd 13 guest, just terminal no graphical desktop.

    My host as stated is WIndows 11, 23H2 on AMD 3900X with 32GB. each Guest has 2 cores and 4GB memory, NVidia videocard

    So big improvement compared to WS 17.6.0 but not totally there yet.

    Thanks.

    I'm on Intel and I don't have any of this problems but the resume problems I said in another post here in this forum.

    There is to say I just employ low latency kernels for my machines, often built by me on a pre emptive dynamic config I also configure myself.

    i also have to say 17.5.x didn't had any problem for me.
