Hi Adam, Before installing VMWare, you must rebuild vmmon module and this proses need kernel-source to be installed. Please refer to http://www.vavai.net/index.php?/archives/18-Installing-VMWare-Ver-5.5-.X-on-OpenSUSE-10.3.html for complete process. I used VMWare v5.5 but it should be OK with the newer version. -- Best Regards, Masim "Vavai" Sugianto /************************************************************/ Blog (ID) : http://www.vavai.com/blog/index.php Blog (EN) : http://www.vavai.net Community : http://www.opensuse.or.id Email : [EMAIL PROTECTED] /************************************************************/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
