直接说吧，vmware的作用不用介绍了，像 dorainm这种自己摆弄系统底层的，经常用 vmware弄个freeBSD、linux-2.4.x、linux-2.6.x之类的玩！
大家在安装vmware后，运行vmware-config.pl，经常会卡在内核头文件这里
None of the pre-built vmmon modules for VMware Workstation is suitable for your running kernel. Do you want this program to try to build the vmmon module for your system (you need to have a C compiler installed on your system)? [yes]
Using compiler "/usr/bin/gcc". Use environment variable CC to override.
What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running kernel? [/usr/src/linux/include]
The path "/usr/src/linux/include" is not an existing directory.
What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running kernel? [/usr/src/linux/include] /root/sources/linux-2.6.22.2/include
The directory of kernel headers (version @@VMWARE@@ UTS_RELEASE) does not match your running kernel (version 2.6.22.2). Even if the module were to compile successfully, it would not load into the running kernel.
What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running kernel? [/usr/src/linux/include]
可气吧！明明修改指向我自己编译用过了的linux内核文件夹了，但是提示还是错误(dorainm使用的内核是2.6.22.2)
The directory of kernel headers (version @@VMWARE@@ UTS_RELEASE) does not match your running kernel (version 2.6.22.2). Even if the module were to compile successfully, it would not load into the running kernel.
打开 linux/version.h 一看，内容是
#define LINUX_VERSION_CODE 132630
#define KERNEL_VERSION(a,b,c) (((a) << 16) + ((b) << 8) + (c))
掐指一算， 2.6.22内核 = 2<<16 + 6<<8 + 22 = 2*65536 + 6*256 + 22 =132630
为什么说版本不对阿？！难道版本算法不同？！（bc：谁在掐我的指头！）
再次看，vmware读取的版本，UTS_RELEASE！用这个阿！
哈，我们往 linux/version.h 里面添加一行
#define UTS_RELEASE "2.6.22.2"
#define LINUX_VERSION_CODE 132630
#define KERNEL_VERSION(a,b,c) (((a) << 16) + ((b) << 8) + (c))
这次 vmware终于相信 dorainm提供给它的内核头文件的版本是匹配的， 嘿嘿嘿
ps：
dorainm现在使用的 linux系统是自己编译的，如果安装的是发行版本，应该有相关的安装内核头文件的方法，比如 redhat/fedora系列的 yum， debian/ubuntu系列的 apt等
如果没有，可以到 www.kernel.org上下载对应的内核，然后
make mrproper
make oldconfig
make
来编译内核头文件，再就按照文中的方法，让 vmware欢快得跑起来。
