Additional info: The output of "equery files vmware-modules" shows modules in |
| 24 |
/lib/modules/2.6.18-gentoo-r2-kosmanor/misc |
| 25 |
but I'm actually booted into the "r4" kernel. This in spite of the |
| 26 |
fact that I was |
| 27 |
running this kernel when I re-emerged them about an hour ago. How do I get |
| 28 |
them to install in the right place? |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
For now, I'm gonna just copy them. Wish me luck. I don't really |
| 31 |
expect too much |
| 32 |
to be different between r2 and r4. |
