VMware install in Potato trouble



I'm trying to install VMware on Potato, and I'm getting the following
error:

---Error----

None of VMware's pre-built vmmon modules is suitable for your running
kernel. Do
you want this script to try to build the vmmon module for your system
(you need
to have a C compiler installed on your system)? [yes]

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 2.2.15) does not match your
running
kernel (version 2.2.17). Consequently, even if the compilation of the
module was
successful, the module would not load into the running kernel.

What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your
running
kernel? [/usr/src/linux/include]

---Error----

I tried using /usr/include but got the above error. My kernel is 2.2.17
binary. Do I need to recompile a new kernel. Any suggestions?
