Kernel Headers 3.10.18 not found in VMware Kernel Module Updater

Question

I had Ubuntu 14.10 and VMware Player 7.0.0 installed on my Acer Chromebook 11. Wwhen I open VMware, I get the exact same error message as mentioned this thread - "What is the path to the kernel headers so I can install vmware?", except it is "Kernel Headers 3.10.18", not "2.6.38-8-generic". I tried every suggestion in that thread, but to no avail. Can someone please help me?

Your suggestion is much appreciated! Thank you so much!

try

sudo apt-get install build-essential

and then

sudo vmware-modconfig --console --install-all

worked for me

The version file is not in the relevant folder, so this command should help with the issue.

cp /usr/include/linux/version.h /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build/include/linux/
