When installing Oracle Linux 5U7 as a Guest OS on VMWare fusion 4, you will probably run into the “no module ehci-hcd found for kernel 2.6.32-200.13.1.el5uek” during the VMWare Tools installation process. This error is caused by missing usb kernel modules in /lib/modules/2.6.32-200.13.1.el5uek. You can easily solve this by opening a Terminal session, substitute the user by root (su – root) and executing the command below.

cp /lib/modules/2.6.18-274.el5/kernel/drivers/usb/host/?hci-hcd.ko \

/lib/modules/2.6.32-200.13.1.el5uek/kernel/drivers/usb/host

Now you can start the installation of VMWare tools by executing

./vmware-install.pl

- i received a key from weather.com on 6th of nov, but no partner id. i just removed the relevant part from the conkyforecast.config and it seems to work fine.

.conkyForecast.config:
CACHE_FOLDERPATH = /tmp/
CONNECTION_TIMEOUT = 5
EXPIRY_MINUTES = 15
TIME_FORMAT = %H:%M
DATE_FORMAT = %d/%m/%Y
LOCALE =fin
XOAP_LICENCE_KEY = xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
MAXIMUM_DAYS_FORECAST = 5
BASE_XOAP_URL = http://xml.weather.com/weather/local/?cc=*&dayf=10&link=xoap&prod=xoap&key=&unit=m
