Hi
I have installed SL5 and then I installed vmpalyer. While configuring
vmplayer it says that
"None of the pre-built vmmon modules for VMware Player 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)?"
after I entered, it says
What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your
running
kernel? [/usr/src/linux/include]
I could not find kernel-source or kernel-<version>.src.rpm anywhere.
Please help me in this regard
If you are running the standard kernel, yum install kernel-devel is
all you need. For more details, see the wiki:
http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/I_need_the_Kernel_Source
Better, find someone who's packaged it properly for RHEL5, CentOS5 or SL5.
One should not need to build commonly=used software from source, unless
one's running LFS, Gentoo or similar.
