I'm stuck since 2 days trying to have my Graphic card working in a Vmware host.

- Ubuntu 10.04 running on host
- Graphic card: AMD Radeon 6900 Series
Useful output :

I'm starting my ubuntu in text mode.
I try to have OpenCL running in my VM. I tried a lot of various tutorials with ati-stream and so on and nothing works.
Then I followed [This][1]
After I did it I got this message at startup:
dmesg|grep radeon

So, I know that the passthrough is working since I can see my graphic card in my host but I can't make it work right. I Installed Vmware Guest Tools.
Can anyone help me? Ask me if you need more information!
