Mengatasi masalah kernel header pada instalasi vmare tools ubuntu 10.10

waktu melakukan instalasi vmware tools pada virtual host ubuntu 10.10 saya menemui error seperti di atas, "the directory of kernel headers (version @@VMWARE@@ UTS_RELEASE) does not match your running kernel". solusinya adalah:

1. install linux headers

apt-get install linux-headers-`uname-r`

2.install build essential

apt-get install build-essential

3. download open vm tools, disarankan versi terbaru

wget http://dfn.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/open-vm-tools/open-vm-tools-2009.03.18-154848.tar.gz

tar xfz open-vm-tools-*.tar.gz

cd open-vm-tools-*/modules/linux

for i in *; do mv ${i} ${i}-only; tar -cf ${i}.tar ${i}-only; done

4. copy seluruh file tar yang sudah dibuat tadi ke folder vmware-tools-distrib/lib/modules/source/

5. install vmware tools seperti biasa
