*Q: Why does vmware-config.pl report "There is probably a light difference of kernel configuration between the set of C header files you specified and your running kernel"?*

*A:* This error message is displayed when the configuration program successfully builds custom VMware Workstation modules but they are incompatible with your running kernel. This happens when there is a mismatch between your running kernel and the directory of header files. Some distribution vendors ship a directory of header files that exhibits this problem. We encourage them to fix it. In the meantime, please consider recompiling your Linux kernel. This is the only way to ensure that the directory of header files will match your Linux kernel exactly.
