 Posted: Thu Apr 26, 2007 9:08 am Post subject: Can't emerge vmware-server-tools [SOLVED] |
 |
|
Hi all,
I'm having problems emerging vmware-server-tools. I realise it is not part of the portage but I imagine someone got it working if it found it's way into the overlay. 
My setup as all worthy gentooer is a gentoo server running vmware-server and a gentoo virtual host (which fails to install the tools).
Here is what I get from the virtual host
| Code: |
vmgentoo ~ # export CD_ROOT=/root && emerge vmware-server-tools
Calculating dependencies... done!

Moved from Portage & Programming to Unsupported Software. Stuff from overlays belongs here.
Not knowing anything about how vmware builds, could you see if it compiles against an older kernel version? Otherwise, you should probably contact the people responsible for the overlay and let them know about this error.

Hi mark_alec,
it was a good intuition you had... works fine in 2.6.19-r5 
Thanks for your help!
