Description:

When I update my system to the latest today(xorg 1.8), I found that mount.hgfs doesn't work again. I get this message from dmesg output:

But.. I can't understand why xorg can impact mount.hgfs. Any idea or hint?

The kernel was recently updated and compiled with gcc 4.5, external modules might need recompiling. As hgfs is not a kernel module included in the kernel, you should try to recompile it.

I have a same kind of problem with XFS. I can't mount an XFS partition with le lastest kernel version.

The kernel shouldn't have been compiled with gcc 4.5.
