I dont need to recomplie anymore but I dont understand this msg that the config in vmware is asking me ....

 

 

What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running

kernel? [/usr/src/linux/include]

The default C header files location is "/usr/include" however you are using a package based system, so you could be missing the files.

 

You will need to install the package relating to the "linux-headers" .. I will also guess that it will be compiling, so you will also need "gcc"

 

Do this

Code:

uname -a
apt-get install linux-headers-<KERNEL_VERSION>
apt-get install gcc

 

 

To get the kernel version, run the command "uname -a" .. then replace the <KERNEL_VERSION> bit
