Has anyone successfully compiled the required modules for 'VMware Workstation' under Debian/etch? Though I've been able to do this on two Ubuntu systems, I keep getting errors during the installation process on my 'etch' systems:
The directory of kernel headers (version @@VMWARE@@ UTS_RELEASE) does not match your running kernel (version 2.6.18-3-686). Even if the module were to compile successfully, it would not load into the running kernel. Apparently something isn't right in the installed header files: root:/usr/src# ls -l total 12 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root src 26 2007-02-16 17:13 linux -> linux-headers-2.6.18-3-686/ drwxr-xr-x 17 root root 4096 2007-02-16 17:12 linux-headers-2.6.18-3/ drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 2007-02-16 17:13 linux-headers-2.6.18-3-686/ drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 2007-01-27 19:02 linux-kbuild-2.6.18/ Here's some more info: root:/usr/src# uname -a Linux foobar 2.6.18-3-686 #1 SMP Mon Dec 4 16:41:14 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux root:/# cat /usr/src/linux/include/linux/version.h #define LINUX_VERSION_CODE 132626 #define KERNEL_VERSION(a,b,c) (((a) << 16) + ((b) << 8) + (c)) I downloaded and manually installed this as well: linux-headers-2.6.18-3_2.6.18-7_i386.deb but it made no difference ...
