Been trying to install (evaluation copy) of VMWare on Suse 9.1 Pro 
and it's driving me nuts. 
 
At this point I'm so tired and bleary eyed - I'm sure I am overlooking 
something very basic and simple but I've looked at it too long. 
But it's something in the make I think. 
And I think I missed something in the modules I need to load 
to cover all the dependencies.... 
 
Here's a copy of the input and output -  
Would someone please look at it and tell me what I'm missing 
thanks

Trying to find a suitable vmmon module for your running kernel. 
 
None of the pre-built vmmon modules for VMware Workstation is suitable for your 
running kernel.  Do you want this program to try to build the vmmon module for 
your system (you need to have a C compiler installed on your system)? [yes] yes 
 
Using compiler "/usr/bin/gcc". Use environment variable CC to override. 
 
What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running 
kernel? [/usr/src/linux/include]
