You have to have the kernel source, or at least the headers part of it, in /usr/src/linux. Sometimes that's not enough (I'm not familiar with the vmware Makefile so I can't tell for vmware) and you have to do this: cd /usr/include mv linux linux.old ln -s /usr/src/linux/include/linux . mv asm asm.old ln -s /usr/src/linux/include/asm . -- Alex Shnitman | http://www.debian.org [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] +----------------------- http://alexsh.hectic.net UIN 188956 PGP key on web page E1 F2 7B 6C A0 31 80 28 63 B8 02 BA 65 C7 8B BA Linux represents a best-of-breed UNIX, that is trusted in mission critical applications, and - due to it's open source code - has a long term credibility which exceeds many other competitive OS's. -- Internal Microsoft memo
