Disable nouveau complete from kernel if the upper not helps.

I could boot 4.9.39, it brings:
- Dell features like screen light control and wireless toggle key,
- dual screen support using the HDMI port,
and maybe more that I couldn't see, wow!
I am using this experimental kernel on my workstation (lenovo w541).
I
have been using it for quite a long time and have not had any major
issues.
I also use it on my secondary workstation (lenovo h50-55).
In addition to my previous reply:
- suspend works
- hibernate works
This is just great!
But it fails to configure VMWare Workstation 12.5.7 and this is a must for my pro activities on this machine.
The build of vmmon and vmnet kernel modules fail. The 12.5.7 version contain the fixes for known/recent issues related to installing VMWare WS on 4.6/4.9 kernels (API changes) and I couldn't find a tip about how to solve this yet. Probably off-topic here, but I doubt I'll get support from VMWare since it's an experimental kernel on top of CentOS7.
Regards,
What about now that you have it booted and working except for VMWare install the mainline 4.x kernel that is available? Take precautionary steps to make sure that will work, hence, back up any data and, if need be, configs.
Would that work?
It didn't. I tried to boot using kernel-ml-4.12.4-1.el7.elrepo.x86_64 but it hangs either before or right after the graphical login. No visual tip, system is not responsive until I shutdown the computer. /var/log/message is full of kernel info about failures in a loop that I cannot interpret, see:
