I am going to follow Tim's advice and upgrade everything. I couldn't do
that then because I was running the live CD, and a reboot would be
required, impossible with a live CD. I will install it to hard disk and
upgrade everything (including kernel if suggested by Adept) and see how it
goes. Kind of busy with something else right now.
Thank you.
You can always reconfigure the kernel source to match your running kernel.
Download the matching 'kernel-source' for the running kernel, copy
the '/boot/config-2.6.<version>' to the top level of the kernel source
tree,
renaming it to '.config', google 'make oldconfig' to see how this is
supposed to
work.
BTW, I used an old Vmware workstation binary for years and had to stay with the
2.6.18 kernel for since it was the last supported kernel for my version of Vmware
WS, I finally switch to VirtualBox this year so I could upgrade to Debian Squeeze
64 bit, it is nice to not jump through the kernel/header issues with old
versions of Vmware.
