I had problems building the vmware modules and it worked a treat once I installed kernel-devel

I had previously tried,

fudging the /lib/modules/..../build..... treee
installing kernel source rpm

I have trouble with the vmware-config-tools.pl script in a VMware5. When
the script ask me "C header files that match your running kernel", this

Check google for vmware-any-any

Hi Tony,

I tried VMware-any-any-update90 and 91 too, but didnt't work. After the
config script couldn't start Virtual machine monitor and Virtual ethernet.
Do you have any ideas?

Thanks,
Peter


Go to /usr/src/kernels/2.6.11-1-1366_FC4-x86_64/include/asm and do a "ln -s ../linux/ioctl32.h ioctl32.h" and try the build again. This has worked for me. Replace 1366 with the version of the kernel you want to build for. I have not built for i386, but should be the same.
