Kernel Headers Not Found - 3.5.0-27-generic

Hi everyone,

I was having this problem earlier. Whenever I tried to start VMPlayer on Lubuntu 12.10, I was getting an error regarding Kernel Headers not being found. My kernel was apparently 3.5.0-27-generic.

You can get your kernel version by typing 'uname -r' in a command prompt.

What I did to resolve this error was to install the package 'linux-headers-lbm-3.5.0-27-generic'.

In particular, I used the following command:

'sudo apt-get install linux-headers-lbm-3.5.0-27-generic build-essential'

I thought I would post this here in case anyone else was having this problem.

I can confirm that this works (for my problem at least), since I am now running Windows 7 in VMPlayer.

-Steven
