Take a look here: http://www.vmware.com/community/thread.jspa?messageID=76957&tstart=0Essentially, vmware in its raw state doesn't compile with relatively newer kernels. You need patches to make them work. You can find these patches at http://platan.vc.cvut.cz/ftp/pub/vmware .
Once you download and tgunzip them you will simply run the installer from there.
Good luck.
