As others suggested: - install kernel-$flavor-devel, kernel-devel and kernel-macros
(zypper install kernel-$flavor-devel will suffice, $flavor is most likely "default")
at this stage i additionally do: * cd to /usr/src/linux-obj/x86_64/default/ * and then do a "make prepare" * and a "make modules_prepare".
You shouldn't. The kernel-$flavor-devel package is prepared exactly so that you do not need to do this.
then i continue as Michal Kubecek wrote:
- unpack vmmon.tar and vmnet.tar from /usr/lib/vmware/modules/source - optionally, some patching might be needed for recent kernels
(but if it is, it would be needed for "vmware-modconfig" as well)
- run "make" in each vmmon-only/ and vmnet-only/ - create /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/misc and copy vmmon.ko and vmnet.ko
into it
and after this i do a "depmod -a".
Ah, yes, of course. I knew I forgot something :-) Thinking about it, running "/etc/init.d/vmware restart" after all this may be another step I forgot. Michal Kubeček -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
