VMware requires the kernel sources to compile its modules, not the glibc
headers. Try installing the sources of the kernel you are running, do a
"make cloneconfig" and "make dep" to get your tree configured. Then, run 
vmware-config.pl.

Note: SuSE distributes kernel binaries with version 2.4.4-4GB, or
something like that. The way they implement that in the kernel Makefile,
will not be reflected when you "make dep" the source tree. If you get an
error message from vmware-config.pl about kernel version mismatch, could
you report back? we'll work from there if you have problems.
