Hi Chris, could you please remind us again what your distro is?  I
tried look back at the older messages in the thread but couldn't find
anything.

On Fedora/Redhat based machines, you can find out if your kernel dev
libraries are installed by doing the command:
rpm -q kernel-devel

You should see something like:
kernel-devel-2.6.18-1.2868.fc6

You could also see if you have the kernel sources and headers by
dropping into the command line and trying:
ls /lib/modules/`uname -r`/

Note the ticks are both the same, and the one that shares the same key
as the tilde. You should see a handful of files.  Try and look for a
file named 'build' or 'source'.  On my Fedora and Gentoo boxes, these
two files are both symlinks to the kernel sources.

On a side-note.  I've never got SVGA to work correctly for Win98 under
VMWare.  YMMV.  I have managed to get SVGA and high-colour to work
using Win2K and up under VMWare.  I don't know what the experience is
of other people on the list... perhaps someone can give tips for how
to ensure that sound and video work correctly for Win98 under VMWare?
