Scott F.Johnston shared this: [quote] I got a solution from vmware. This is fixed in upcoming versions. It is caused by Mandrake 6 being compiled for large kernel support turned on. The fix is: 0) Uninstall VMware 1) In the vmware-distrib directory (as root) untar the driver-only.tar file: tar xvf driver-only.tar 2) Modify vmware-distrib/driver-only/common/hostif.h by replacing 0xc0000000 with +0x80000000 3) Recreate the tar file with the following command: tar cvf driver-only.tar driver-only/* 4) Reinstall VMware (./install.pl) It worked fine for me running vmware-1.0.3 [end of quote] Regards tom -- "There is no spoon."
