Hello ..
i've reinstalled linux completely due to some "minor inconveniencies" and
i'm trying
to reinstall vmware workstation.
during the vmware-config.pl file you have to run after the rpm
installation, i get some weird compilation warnings... like this.
cpp: -lang-c: linker input file unused since linking not done
<command line>: warning: "cpu" re-asserted
<command line>: warning: "machine" re-asserted
cpp: -lang-c: linker input file unused since linking not done
<command line>: warning: "cpu" re-asserted
<command line>: warning: "machine" re-asserted
cpp: -lang-c: linker input file unused since linking not done
and then fatal:
make[2]: Cambiando a directorio
`/root/tmp/vmware-config5/vmmon-only/driver-2.4.17-16mdk'
<command line>: warning: "cpu" re-asserted
<command line>: warning: "machine" re-asserted

Unable to build the vmmon module.
For more information on how to troubleshoot module-related problems, please
have
a look at "http://www.vmware.com/download/modules/modules.html";.
Execution aborted.
now, what is re-asserted? it's the first time i see those coming up on
vmware-config, which is used after every kernel update...
besides, all those warnings...... and this doesn't look like a gcc problem
anyway.
i tried using gcc 2.96 and 3.0.1. exactly the same issue.
any help greatly appreciated, as always ;o)
thanks!!
Damian
