IIRC: 2.6.14 worked fine with me.

IIRC: vmware player 1.0, like vmware workstation 5.5, does not need to
      have the vmware-any-any patch applied while vmware GSX server does.

IIRC: you need to have the set of kernel headers of your running
      kernel

IIRC: you need to have the same compiler version as your kernel was
      built with.

HTH.
