[opensuse] installed gcc vs. one used to make kernel
I am installing VMware on openSUSE 11.1, and it says this: "Your kernel was built with "gcc" version "4.3.2", while you are trying to use "/usr/bin/gcc" version "4.3". This configuration is not recommended and VMware Workstation may crash if you'll continue. Please try to use exactly same compiler as one used for building your kernel." My system is (AFAIK) up to date. Should this be this way? -- Roger Oberholtzer OPQ Systems / Ramböll RST Ramböll Sverige AB Krukmakargatan 21 P.O.

That's a known bug in vmwares build scripts. It does use the wrong switch in gcc to get the version. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Known bug in vmware. Just ignore and tell it to go ahead. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.

Known error in Vmwares script. The gcc command line switch they're using always returns major_version.minor_version whereas what they would need would be parsing the output of --version. Just ignore it. Philipp -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
