Hi, I was running VMWare on kernel 2.4.26 and now that I seem to have apt-get upgrade'd myself into 2.4.27 VMWare won't run.
I says I should reconfigure it, but when I do I get the following error: ------------ What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running kernel? [/lib/modules/2.4.27-1-686/build/include] Extracting the sources of the vmmon module. Building the vmmon module.

Execution aborted. --------- This is only an evaluation version of vmware, and it was working well under 2.4.26, so I ordered a copy (yet to arrive). I would hate to move to one of the linux distros that they support and would prefer to stay with debian. Any suggestions on why the compiling might have worked under 2.4.26 and doesn't under 2.4.27.
