Leif and aklug:
My boss at work grabbed the Mandrake 9.1 disks off my desk while I was out
ofthe office yesterday :-) . I copied the ISO's from games.gci.net.
He is having problems getting his VMware up and running...which worked fine
under Redhat 8.1
Any advice would be great.

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]
Using compiler "/usr/bin/gcc". Use environment variable CC to override.
As of September 2002, gcc version 3 and later is not yet a supported
compilerby
the Linux kernel development team. Have a look at Documentation/Changes in
your
kernel source directory to get the correct compiler installed. Do you want
togo
with compiler "/usr/bin/gcc" version "3.2.2"? [no] yes
What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your
running
kernel? [/usr/src/linux/include] /usr/include/linux
The path "/usr/include/linux" 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 2.4.21) does not match your running
kernel (version 2.4.21-0.13mdkenterprise). Even if the module were to
compile
successfully, it would not load into the running kernel.
