Well it looks like it is the CFLAGS parameters in the kernel Makefile
that is causing the problem. I.e.
/usr/src/kernels/2.6.20-1.2997.fc7-x86_64/Makefile or
/usr/src/kernels/2.6.20-1.2999.fc7-x86_64/Makefile. You need to replace
the -Wextra parameter with -Wundef that is around line 318 in the
Makefile. This will allow VMWare tp build again without an error.
CFLAGS := -Wall -Wundef -Wstrict-prototypes -Wno-trigraphs \
-fno-strict-aliasing -fno-common \
-Werror-implicit-function-declaration \
-Wundef -Wno-unused-parameter -Wno-missing-field-initializers
## -Wextra -Wno-unused-parameter -Wno-missing-field-initializers
Jim
Thanks. Unfortunately I'm trying to build against /usr/src/kernels/2.6.20-1.2925.fc6-i586 and the parameters you refer to are not in the Makefile.
This is the error I get....

There is probably a slight difference in the kernel configuration between the
set of C header files you specified and your running kernel. You may want to
rebuild a kernel based on that directory, or specify another directory.
