I have installed the missing kernel sources fro the DVD. Create the missing header files before compiling the vmware kernel modules. 1) Install package kernel-source-2.4.10.SuSE (I used kernel-source-2.4.10.SuSE-8.i386.rpm from CD 2.) Make sure the running kernel fits this source. Boot the correct kernel if not. 2) Create header files cd /usr/src/linux make mrproper make cloneconfig Turn on module versions. Make no other change to the kernel configuration, and leave the maximum suported memory at 4GB (vmware won't work with 64GB). There are several ways to do this: make xconfig Enter "Loadable module support" (2nd down on the left), and set "set version information on all module symbols" to yes. Save and exit. make menuconfig ... make config ... make dep This has created the missing header files. DO NOT COMPILE MODULES (waste of time) or INSTALL THE KERNEL OR MODULES (warranty/support void if done)! -- Med venlig hilsen / Best regards Erik Jakobsen - erik@urbakken.dk Powered by SuSE 7.3
