Hi everyone,
Since a while I am struggling with getting vmware to work on OL7. After an update (yum update) vmware wants to recompile some kernel module and fails.
when I run uname -r it tells me I have this installed: 5.4.17-2136.300.7.el7uek.x86_64
when I run yum install kernel-devel it tells me: Package kernel-devel-3.10.0-1160.45.1.el7.x86_64 already installed and latest version
Shouldn't these two things match?
Lastly, an rpm -qa | grep kernel yields (among others):
kernel-uek-devel-5.4.17-2136.300.7.el7uek.x86_64
I am totally confused as this is way beyond my skill level. I am not even sure I am providing the necessary info here. I would appreciate any help I could get. Let me know if I should provide any other info.
Thank you all in advance!
