Re: Need help compiling VMWare modules.
Which version of vmware are you trying to install? Some of them do not
like gcc 2.95. I changed the CC= line in the Makefile to use gcc272
when I a problem similar to this (I don't remember the exact errors, so
it may not be the same problem). The latest betas work fine for me with
gcc 2.95, however (and they can find the correct headers).
