I've upgraded my linux box to a new kernel and am trying to recompile vmware 6.5 modules against new kernel. Link in /usr/src/linux point to the correct (newest)
kernel. When I run vmware I get a window "Vmware Kernel Module Updater". After a while another window popsup "Unable to build kernel module see log file /tmp/vmware-root/.setup for details"
The log file has this:
Nov 18 17:41:00.577: app| Log for VMware Workstation pid=2288 version=6.5.2 build=build-156735 option=Release
Nov 18 17:41:00.577: app| Host codepage=UTF-8 encoding=UTF-8

I've tried this as root and as a regular user. Any advice on how to fix this?
thanks
