I all, I was having the same problem you mention building the vmmon module on Intrepid kernel 2.6.27-7-generic Then I downloaded VMware-Player-2.5.0-118166x86_64.rpm alias package Since Intrepid cannot manage rpms, I installed alias from synaptic
I created vmware-player_2.5.0-118167_amd64.deb package using the command > sudo alias --scripts VMware-Player-2.5.0-118166x86_64.rpm (we need --scripts option to convert also installation scripts) Unistalled kvm (otherwise wmplayer won't install properly) and finally installed the package vmware-player_2.5.0-118167_amd64.deb using GDebi (doubleclick) It seems to work fine. I hope it helps. -- VMWare Server on kernel 2.6.27-2-generic: cannot compile vmmon module https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/263837 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
