Where are the kernel headers ?
 
I am trying to install vmware and i am getting an error:

Code:
What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running
kernel? [/usr/src/linux/include]

........
Unable to build the vmmon module.
I guess they are not in /usr/src/linux/include (I also tried /usr/src/linux-2.6.29.6/include). Please help me.

I think all the headers are in both /usr/src/linux and /usr/include/linux.

EDIT: I really don't know how to help you though. Sorry.

Nope. I am getting the same error again.

do you have the correct kernel-headers installed?

my kernel:
Code:
skalkoto@darkstar:~$ uname -r
2.6.32.7-smp
skalkoto@darkstar:~$
my kernel headers:
Code:
skalkoto@darkstar:~$ ls /var/log/packages/kernel-headers*
/var/log/packages/kernel-headers-2.6.32.7_smp-x86-1
skalkoto@darkstar:~$
