I checked 'uname -a' and everything seemed to match.
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.

I am trying Ubuntu Maverick with Trinity 3.5.12,
the live image I got from
the trinity.pearsoncomputing.net site. I am testing how well it works
before I do a potential upgrade. One of my tests includes installing
VMWare. I couldn't make it work, VMWare complains that the source in
/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.whatever/include doesn't match the
installed/running kernel, so it can't build the required modules. I got the
source from the Adept Manager application (plus the build-essential
package). Do you folks know anything about that? How can I get a kernel
source that will match the running kernel?
You can check this yourself with:
1.At the cli, 'uname -a' will tell you the version of the kernel you are
running.
2. Compare that to the kernel-headers version Vmware is finding.
It is possible you got the wrong headers ?
