Has anyone been able to install vmware on openSUSE 10.2?
Which one? VMWare Server or VMWare Workstation?
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
No problems with
VMwareWorkstation-5.5.3-34685 kernel-default-2.6.18.5-jen40b vmware_kernel-105.40b-jen4 (install and run vmware-config, voila)
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
I don't know if there are any particular issues with 64 bit processors, but I suppose you have done at least a make cloneconfig + make modules_prepare on your kernel sources.
No no no. "kernel-source" is already prepared enough.
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
