I am trying to compile VMware torun on the 2.6.6-1.427 kernel, but I keep gettinga compile error. It worked very well with the previous 2.6 kernel. Here is what I am getting in the attached file. Thanks
suitable vmmon module for your running kernel. None of VMware Workstation's pre-built vmmon modules is suitable for your running kernel. Do you want this program to try to build the vmmon module for your system (you need to have a C compiler installed on your system)? [yes] Using compiler "/usr/bin/gcc". Use environment variable CC to override. What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running kernel?
