I have the same problem today when I try to recook the vmware modules.
Previously this has been working great with the 2.6 kernels thanks to the
guy(s) at

http://ftp.cvut.cz/vmware/

Now I am getting this with .300

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 an existing directory, but it does not
contain at least one of these directories "linux", "asm", "net" as expected.

Hm, it does have net and linux... I made a symlink from asm-i386 to asm,
 then. Now I get:

The path "/usr/src/linux/include" is a kernel header file directory, but it
does
not contain the file "linux/version.h" as expected.  This can happen if the
kernel has never been built, or if you have invoked the "make mrproper"
command
in your kernel directory.  In any case, you may want to rebuild your kernel.

These problems did not happen in earlier 2.6 kernels,
