I had to recompile vmware. this involved installing a different compiler (which the vmware script indicated), plus the kernel source and kernel headers, then vmware 3.0 worked fine.

if you can get a working kernel out of if you will have those sneaky headers and some great insight.

checkout kernel.org for sources and there's ample docs on how to install your own kernel. get involved and en-ge-oy.

email me if you run into problem and cc group of course ;P
