vmware on debian


Hello!I'm trying to install vmware on debian and I have on my screen find a directory of c headers files that match the running kernel! I have put /usr/src/kernel-headers-2.4.27-3-386 that is my kernel directory I have.But the reply of the PC is /usr/src/kernel-headers-2.4.27-3-386 is an existing directory but it doesn't contain a linux subdirectory as expected.I need help to solve my problem:install vmware

The kernel headers should ordinarily be in /usr/include/linux. How did you install them?

Edit: AlucardZero, make sure you report posts like these in future as the moderators may not see them.
