Re: Compiling third-party kernel modules for amd64 kernel on Debian/386
I've personally had no difficulty whatsoever with VMware 5 natively on AMD64 Debian, including the building of kernel modules. Is your kernel built with the same version of GCC as gcc -v reports?

Xav The kernel-image-amd64 package overrides a few more things to get the kernel building, like ld and as. You might have to do that too. Personaly I recomend running cdebootstrap to build a 64bit chroot and compile the stuff in there. MfG Goswin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Re: Compiling third-party kernel modules for amd64 kernel on Debian/386
Ok, I finally found a solution: I rebuilt the script/mod/modpost executable and copied it over the one in the kernel-build directory, and the installation went perfectly. Thanks, Xav -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Compiling third-party kernel modules for amd64 kernel on Debian/386
Hi, I just installed kernel-image-2.6.8-9-amd64-k8 and kernel-headers-2.6.8-9-amd64-k8 from Debian/unstable. I also have gcc 3.4 installed and made sure my /usr/bin/gcc was pointing to gcc-3.4 (and the same for g++). Now I want to compile the VMWare modules: # vmware-config.pl ... snip ...
