    Hi,

    I've installed Paralles Workstation 2.1 on Fedora core 5 (RPM with the --nodeps option) and it works just fine. However when I tried Paralles-config the process failed to compile the drivers.
    I got error message listed below :

    In file included from /usr/lib/parallels/drivers/hypervisor/hypervisor.h:36, from /usr/lib/parallels/drivers/hypervisor/hypmain.c:28:
    /usr/lib/parallels/drivers/hypervisor/hypvmstate.h:56: erreur: expected specifier-qualifier-list before ‘pte_entry_t’
    make[4]: *** [/usr/lib/parallels/drivers/hypervisor/hypmain.o] Erreur 1
    make[3]: *** [_module_/usr/lib/parallels/drivers/hypervisor] Erreur 2
    make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/kernels/2.6.15-1.2054_FC5-i586'
    make[2]: *** [hypervisor] Erreur 2

    make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Erreur 1
    make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/lib/parallels/drivers'
    make: *** [all-recursive] Erreur 1

    So now I am stucked right here. Can anyone tell me how to fix this?
    Regards,

    Did you install the corresponding kernel sources?

    Yes the kernel sources are installed, I checked this. Plus, it will not pass the configure step if kernel sources are not installed.

    Looks like this file:
    /usr/lib/parallels/drivers/hypervisor/hypvmstate.h
    needs a lil patch maybe?

    Well, maybe. I thought people managed to install it on fedora 5 with little change on the files.
    I will post the solution if I find it.
    Thx
