The last two kernels 2997 & 2999 no longer allows VMWare to build. Anybody have a fix?

Jim

can't say something to kernels 2997 & 2999, but for previous:

cd /usr/lib/vmware/modules/source/
tar xvf vmmon.tar
cd vmmon-only/include
vi compat_kernel.h

line 80:
#define __NR_compat_exit __NR_exit
+#if LINUX_VERSION_CODE < KERNEL_VERSION(2,6,19)
    static inline _syscall1(int, compat_exit, int, exit_code);
-
+#endif

tar -cf vmmon.tar vmmon-only
vmware-config.pl -d
------------------------------------------------------

this advise doesn't work any more !

I'm seeing the same problem on FC6 and haven't been able to find a fix yet on google.

With VMwareWorkstation-5.5.3-34685 and running the 2.6.20-1.2925.fc6 I cannot rebuild the modules after applying the manual fixes (above) and trying a fresh install of vmware and applying the any-any patch.
