Fedora and VMWare

[ph34r]

Anyone have vmware 3.2.x working under Fedora? I gotta have my minor windows install to do Access DB stuff here at work... For some reason, I can't get the modules to compile properly.

Older versions of VMware were more difficult to work with when dealing with distros that weren't officially supported. If you can. Try Verson 4.0 or higher of VMware. It easily recompile modules to work with your distro. I will be installing Fedora on a test system today and will let you know if VMware 4 works.

I currently use it on RH9 with a kernel version not officially supported.

Got it working. Found a old posting and had to change 1 line in the vmnet source code.
