To answer my own question. I eventually got it to work. I need the vmware-any-any packages version 115a.so make deb out of the vmware tgz (server and mui) (i tried 1.0.5 as it was out)
make deb's out of the vmware-any-any. install the vmware any anymake the any-any kernel modules, install the any-any modules and the vmware server package.
then I had to add in /etc/modules.d/alex options vmmon vmversion=15the last bit is what got it all working, other wise it was complaining about a mismatch in version numbers.

Hi I was wondering if any one has got this combo to work with the vmware-package package. I have it working on 2.6.22 I have done a google, and seen people have got it working with the vmware installer (and patches) alex --"I think the American people -- I hope the American -- I don't think, let me -- I hope the American people trust me."- George W.
