I'm trying to compile vmware (virtual machine under linux), having updated my kernel to 2.2.3.
vmware needs to compile a module during the installation process, and it takes one look at the version.h file that I have in /usr/include/linux and barfs (wrong kernel version - version.h still reckons I'm running 2.0.36). It appears that the info in version.h that comes with the libc6-dev package suggests that I'm still running 2.2.3. I just removed and re-installed libc6-dev, and version.h is no different. I can't believe that such an oversight is "normal", which leads me to conclude that I'm not doing things "the debian way" (again). Could somebody help me out here? How do I keep version.h up to date? Thanks. P.S. vmware actually says the following; Whoa, something is wrong with the system include files on your machine! The file <linux/version.h> is for a 2.0.36 Linux system but you are running a 2.2.3 kernel. And fixing the version number in version.h noticably doesn't fix my compilation problems. -- Graham
