I rebooted, and the only problem I see so far is that I can't get vmware
rebuilt. But first:
1. Was it a mistake to install linux-kernel-headers_2.6.18-6?
2. If so, can I just uninstall it without causing havoc?
I always use apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`. This will install
the headers for the running kernel. If you always boot into the same
kernel, then you can safely remove the other linux-image and
linux-headers packages.
If the answer is "leave it installed", I can get back to the vmware issue.
I have installed vmware with no problems with the any-any-update on three
previous machines but am stuck now.
Which version of vmware are you using? The recent version no longer
needs the any-any update.
