Hi!
I'm doing some testing on 8.1. First I installed on a 'leftover' partition,
and after finding it good I upgraded my installation. I really like 8.1.
I did find a problem however, and that is with VMWare. When running
vmware-config.pl I get this kind of errors. I had the problem after
installation. I did 'make mrproper; make oldconfig; make dep ; make bzImage ;
make modules_install' etc, and I'm running the self compiled kernel. I have
seen this before on MDK 7.2. Any suggestions?
---------from the vmware-config.pl output -----------------------
What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your
running kernel? [/lib/modules/2.4.8-5mdk/build/include] /usr/src/linux/include
