- - Do you really need to recompile everything? The VMWare provided by SuSE is precompiled correctly.
I have to say yes, as I have the license for the version 3.2.
That's a good reason. ;-)
Indeed it is :-)
- - The message above is asking for the C headers. The ones provided by libc library are in package glibc-devel (installed in /usr/include) and the ones provided by the kernel are in package kernel-source (installed in /usr/src/linux/include).
Ok.
If you want the kernel libraries, you may need to run the command "make dep" in /usr/src/linux before using them.
Ok.
I've never recompiled VMWare, but I understand that it builds some kernel modules. Then it is the kernel modules you need, not the glibc ones.
I have just unistalled the VMware 3.2, and have installed the VMware that follows SuSE. But if I run vmware-config.pl, it again will make: Trying to find a suitable vmmon module for your running kernel. None of VMware Workstation's pre-built vmmon modules is suitable for your running kernel. Do you want this script to try to build the vmmon module for your system (you need to have a C compiler installed on your system)? [yes] yes Argument "gcc 3" isn't numeric in numeric ge (>=) at /usr/bin/vmware-config.pl line 1477, <STDIN> line 3. What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running kernel? [/usr/src/linux/include] The directory of kernel headers (version 2.4.19) does not match your running kernel (version 2.4.19-4GB). 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? [/usr/src/linux/include] It IS necessary to run the vmware-config.pl ?.
