Installing vmware 2.04 on debian woody (kernel 2.4.4) is aborting during kernel kompilation with the message "unable to make a vmnet module that can be loaded in the running kernel" followed by different messages saying "/tmp/vmware-config/vmnet.o unresolved symbol sk_free_Rsmpdd7466de" and so on. The final message is: There is probably a light difference of kernel configuration between the set of C header files you specified and your running kernel. It's funny that the same vmware-version runs under redhat with 2.4.4 perfectly... Any ideas? indy
