mspencer | Hi, I'm trying to install the VMware guest additions, but it says it can't find my kernel headers. What package do I need? I've installed linux-headers-generic. | 19:48 |
mspencer | My VM is 12.10 x86 upgraded to 13.04 by replacing quantal with raring in the /etc/apt/sources.list | 19:49 |
bjsnider | mspencer, linux-headers-generic will pull in the headers package for your kernel | 20:00 |
bjsnider | mspencer, the actual files will be in /usr/src/linux-headers-x.x.x-xx-generic | 20:01 |
bjsnider | mspencer, check the actual version against uname -r to make sure | 20:04 |
mspencer | bjsnider: I changed what the setup script had to the path you gave and it still says that it is an invalid path. | 20:06 |
bjsnider | yeah but check the path yourself | 20:06 |
bjsnider | the x's are placeholders for the version numbers | 20:07 |
mspencer | bjsnider: I did replace the X's and made sure that the path exists. It is the right path for the headers vmware is asking for. | 20:07 |
bjsnider | well, that's not an ubuntu problem | 20:08 |
bjsnider | you might want to talk to a vmware expert | 20:08 |
bjsnider | or just google it | 20:08 |
mspencer | bjsnider: okay, thanks. | 20:08 |
bekks | All thats needed for vmware at that point are the headers for the currently running kernel version. | 20:08 |
bjsnider | he has them | 20:08 |
bjsnider | if he has linux-headers-generic he has them automatically | 20:09 |
