OK. I've removed all vmware builds. "emerge -C vmware-modules" reports |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
--- Couldn't find 'vmware-modules' to unmerge. |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
and 'find /var/db/pkg/ -name "*vmware*"' doesn't find anything. |
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
Doing a new "emerge -aDtqv vmware-server" brings in: |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
[ebuild N ] app-emulation/vmware-server-1.0.5.80187 |
| 39 |
[ebuild N ] app-emulation/vmware-modules-1.0.0.15-r1 |
| 40 |
|
| 41 |
Then "modprobe vmmon" reports (as before): |
| 42 |
|
| 43 |
FATAL: Error inserting vmmon |
| 44 |
(/lib/modules/2.6.25-gentoo-r4/misc/vmmon.ko): Invalid module format |
| 45 |
|
| 46 |
with /var/log/messages saying: |
| 47 |
|
| 48 |

I've googled the above message and found this thread (from last night) |
| 52 |
and another thread in which the running kernel version didn't match the |
| 53 |
installed version of linux-headers. I've running the 2.6.25-gentoo-r4 |
| 54 |
kernel and have the same versions of linux-headers and gentoo-sources |
| 55 |
installed. |
| 56 |
|
| 57 |
Looking for more ideas as to what's wrong :-> |
