After installing VMWare-Server following this howto:
http://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-install-vmware-server-1.0.x-on-an-ubuntu-9.10-desktop-p2
I now get this every time I do *any* apt-get install:
<snip>
Failed to process /etc/kernel/postinst.d at
/var/lib/dpkg/info/linux-image-2.6.31.6-custom.postinst line 1186.
dpkg: error processing linux-image-2.6.31.6-custom (--configure):
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2
<snip>
ldconfig deferred processing now taking place
Errors were encountered while processing:
linux-image-2.6.31.6-custom
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
Everything appears to work OK. The custom kernel runs and boots etc.
I've also got an NVIDIA graphics driver installed.. which might be
implicated.
I've had a look at line 1186 referred to above but my hacking skills are
way below requirements. Google hasn't helped so far.
Any suggestions?
thanks.. David.
