I installed hamm on my machine, but have since upgraded to slink (using dselect) and kernel 2.2.1. Problem is I have just got this error message:
>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 2.2.1 kernel. This will not work for building the VMware device drivers; you must have include files that match the version of your operating system.< So I had a look around my /usr/include/linux directory sure enough the version.h file looks like this #define UTS_RELEASE "2.0.36" #define LINUX_VERSION_CODE 131108 in /usr/src/kernel-source-2.2.1/include/linux/ I have the correct version.h file #define UTS_RELEASE "2.2.1" #define LINUX_VERSION_CODE 131585 #define KERNEL_VERSION(a,b,c) (((a) << 16) + ((b) << 8) + (c)) can I just copy the correct version.h file to /usr/include/linux. All the files in /usr/include/linux have creation dates that match the compile date of the kernel. What about the rest of the files in /usr/include/linux, should I check them all or is the make install suppose to place everything where it is suppose to go. I also have a kerneld.h with the orginal hamm creation date should I delete it. Thanks for your help Cheers matt cocker
