Hi,

I am trying to install VMware-Workstation-4.0 in Fedora Core 1 but just
got problems.. I am listing the log below. For info, I also tried the same installation with :

export CC=gcc32

but got the same problems.

Thanks in advance for any help you may offer, Alberto

Making sure VMware Workstation's services are stopped.
 
Stopping VMware services:
   Virtual machine monitor                                 [  OK  ]
 
Trying to find a 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]
 
Unable to find the compiler specified in the CC environnment variable:
"gcc32".
 
Using compiler "/usr/bin/gcc". Use environment variable CC to override.
 
Your kernel was built with "gcc" version "3.2.3", while you are trying to
use
"/usr/bin/gcc" version "3.3.2". This configuration is not recommended and
VMwareWorkstation may crash if you'll continue. Please try to use exactly
same
compiler as one used for building your kernel. Do you want to go with
compiler
"/usr/bin/gcc" version "3.3.2" anyway? [no] yes
 
What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your
running
kernel? [/usr/src/linux/include]
 
The path "/usr/src/linux/include" is not an existing directory.
 
What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your
running
kernel? [/usr/src/linux/include] /usr/bin/
 
The path "/usr/bin" is an existing directory, but it does not contain at
least
one of these directories "linux", "asm", "net" as expected.
 
What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your
running
kernel? [/usr/src/linux/include] /usr/include/
 
The directory of kernel headers (version 2.4.20) does not match your
running
kernel (version 2.4.22-1.2149.nptl).  Even if the module were to compile
successfully, it would not load into the running kernel.
