Running VMware 3.2 under RH9 - installation problem

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi!

For VMware 3.2 the vmware-net build with new kernel fails with syntax errors (it was OK with RH7.1)

A patch has been shown on several mailing list archives. I tried to run the patch but got the following error msg:

patching file /usr/lib/vmware/modules/source/vmnet.tar
Hunk #1 FAILED at 1485.
1 out of 1 hunk FAILED -- saving rejects to file /usr/lib/vmware/modules/source/vmnet.tar.rej


and the contents of rej file:


************** *** 1485,1491 ****

len += sprintf(buf+len, "pids ");

-    for_each_task(p) {
      if (VNetProcessOwnsPort(p, port)) {
         len += sprintf(buf+len, "%d", p->pid);
         if (seen) {
--- 1485,1491 ----

len += sprintf(buf+len, "pids ");

+    for_each_process(p) {
      if (VNetProcessOwnsPort(p, port)) {
         len += sprintf(buf+len, "%d", p->pid);
         if (seen) {



What is going wrong? I am not used to Linux patch error - I had my patching experiences on VAX/VMS and 390/MVS years ago, but no with Unix... Anybody else patched VMware for RH9??

I would be very grateful for any help! Thanks!

best regards from Austria,
