VMware 4.5.1-7568 on Mandriva 2005 LE


Recommended Posts

I've just upgraded from Mandrake 10.1 powerpack to Mandriva 2005 LE. I was using VMWare 4.5.1-7568 with no problems. Since I've upgraded, I haven't been able to use VMWare due to the newer gcc version. When I tried to run "vmware-config.pl" I get the following.

 

 

Building the vmmon module.

 

Using 2.6.x kernel build system.
