Hi there.
I have recently tried to re-install vmware (the new beta version), to see if I can
finally
get it to work. However, I get the following message during the install:
"None of VMware's pre-built vmmon modules is suitable for your running kernel. Do you
want
this script to try to build the vmmon module for your system (you need to have a C
compiler
installed on your system)? [yes]
What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running kernel?
[/usr/src/linux/include]
The directory of kernel headers (version 2.2.9-19mdk) does not match your running
kernel
(version 2.2.9-27mdk). Consequently, even if the compilation of the module was
successful,
the module would not load into the running kernel."
I answer the defaults to both questions - I assume that I have installed a C compiler
because
I selected everything when I installed linux originally (stop laughing - I wasn't to
know any
better :) ). As you can see, I have compiled a new kernel (I think it worked - I
don't get
any error messages during boot-up). Can someone tell me (in simple terms) how I might
be
able to fix this error? If you require further info please ask, as I still have
little to no
idea what I am doing in linux.
Thanks,
Chris.
