[opensuse] vmware on 10.2
Has anyone been able to install vmware on openSUSE 10.2? It is complaining that: The directory of kernel headers (version @@VMWARE@@ UTS_RELEASE) does not match your running kernel (version 2.6.18.2-34-default). I have: kernel-default-2.6.18.2-34 kernel-syms-2.6.18.2-34 kernel-source-2.6.18.2-34 and uname -a shows: Linux suse102 2.6.18.2-34-default #1 SMP Mon Nov 27 11:46:27 UTC 2006 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux Any suggestions gratefully accepted. -- Bob -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Has anyone been able to install vmware on openSUSE 10.2?
Which one? VMWare Server or VMWare Workstation?

No no no. "kernel-source" is already prepared enough. -`J' -- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

How about make cloneconfig && make prepare-all. It is what I use every time I install a new kernel and don't have problems. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Yes, for new kernel tarballs from kernel.org. But the rpms from SUSE are already fully set FWIW. Which is enough for most ;) -`J' -- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

I did the make cloneconfig and make modules_prepare then workstation 5.5.1-19175 installed ok. Then it told me about 5.5.3 which I downloaded and installed without problems. It's running fine now Thanks. -- Bob -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
