Re: vmware-server with 2.6.24

Hi

Just thought I would update this,

I just tried to build some more deb's from the vmware downloads.

What I found (with the new vmware-packages 0.22) is
I can easily build the server and the blobs and the console

I had to use any-any-115a, with make-vmware -u 115a -s -p any-any <tgz>
The resultant vmware kernel source file build .

I tried make-vmware with 116, but could not build the kernel module

note the changelog for vmware-package says you can build against the
2.6.24 tree, but as yet I haven't been able to (I haven't tried very
hard to find out what the problem might be)

AFAIK, vmware workstation 6 and vmware server 1.0.4 don't need any patch. I've tried both of them on 2.6.22 and 2.6.24. Both run very well.
