Re: gcc version issue trying to install vmware5



Just a note to let you know that I installed the vanilla kernel headers,
and I had to redo the soft link of /usr/bin/gcc to /usr/bin/gcc-3.4.

I think I might have previously deleted the vanilla headers when I
wondered what they were doing next to the smp tree!  Won't delete them
again!

VMware has now compiled and running.... (taking lots of ram!).  

Thanks for your support!
