At this time we (VMware) feel that that driver is not stable enough and we would prefer users to get the driver from our VMwareTools package as it is better tested. Once we feel that the driver in mainline is mature enough and it is promoted from stable into regular tree we would love distributions to ship it, however at this time we'd like you to disable it in your kernels. Thanks!
