The path "/usr/src/linux/include" is a kernel header file directory, but it does not contain the file "linux/version.h" as expected. This can happen if the kernel has never been built, or if you have invoked the "make mrproper" command in your kernel directory. In any case, you may want to rebuild your kernel.
As said in a previous mail, you'll need to install the package kernel-source

This is starting to piss me off. I've got the source and headers installed BUT when I try here is what I get: vmware-config.pl Making sure services for VMware Server are stopped. Stopping VMware autostart virtual machines: Virtual machines failed Stopping VMware management services: VMware Virtual Infrastructure Web Access VMware Server Host Agent failed Stopping VMware services: VMware Authentication Daemon done Virtual machine monitor done None of the pre-built vmmon modules for VMware Server is suitable for your running kernel. Do you want this program to try to build the vmmon module for your system (you need to have a C compiler installed on your system)? [yes] Using compiler "/usr/bin/gcc". Use environment variable CC to override. Your kernel was built with "gcc" version "4.3.1", while you are trying to use "/usr/bin/gcc" version "4.3". This configuration is not recommended and VMware Server may crash if you'll continue. Please try to use exactly same compiler as one used for building your kernel. Do you want to go with compiler "/usr/bin/gcc" version "4.3" anyway? [no] yes What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running kernel? [/usr/src/linux/include] /usr/include/linux The header files in /usr/include are generally for C libraries, not for the running kernel. If you do not have kernel header files in your /usr/src directory, you probably do not have the kernel-source package installed.

Even if the module were to compile successfully, it would not load into the running kernel. What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running kernel?
