I recently upgraded my laptop from FC3 to FC4 (run the upgrade option)
Vmware will not start because of the change in kernel
it is asking for the directory that the c header files are in
I tried googling, searching and searching, but no luck
I pulled down the kernel-2.6.11-1.1369_FC4.src.rpm, and installed using
rpm -ivh kernel-2.6.11-1.1369_FC4.src.rpm
It seemed to install.......... but where are those pesky c header files
for kernel 2.6.11??
Please help, someone.......... It will be my birthday wish come true!!!!

There's a patch available which fixes this. See:
http://ftp.cvut.cz/vmware/
Download the latest version of the vmware-any-any-update* series file (I
downloaded vmware-any-any-update91.tar.gz). Then unpack and execute the
runme.pl file. This will patch VMware to work correctly on FC4.
I'm running FC4 with VMware Workstation 5.0.0 (build-13124) using kernel
2.6.11-1.1369_FC4 and all is working just fine after applying the patch.
