Running vmware-config-pl for VMware-server-1.0.1-29996.i386.rpm on
FC6-2.6.20-1.2925.fc6-i686
and I get the following error, can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong.
( But of course I would believe it couldn't be anything that I'm doing).
What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your
running
kernel? [/lib/modules/2.6.20-1.2925.fc6/build/include]
/lib/modules/2.6.20-1.2925.fc6/build/include
