hi All, Thanks for the feedback. the suggestions are not sufficent to bring VMware back up. With the help of some foks on the vmware newsgroups you will need a modified vmon module to compile. These can be found here: ftp://platan.vc.cvut.cz/pub/vmware and pick vmware-any-any-update38 or later. i have used this new code and the vmware now buzzes along nicely once again. SuSE backported epoll patches from 2.5.x to 2.4.x, and while this caused only warning, really bad things happened. The result in vmon is memory corruptions. Hope this helps some others.

maybe a week and a half ago, maybe it will assist you. It handled stuff for me trying to get VMWare to recognize my athlon kernel: <quote> cp /boot/vmlinuz.version.h /usr/src/linux/include/linux/version.h cp /boot/vmlinuz.autoconf.h /usr/src/linux/include/linux/autoconf.h
The better way is:
- install kernel_source - cd /usr/src/linux - make cloneconfig - make dep
And then:
Then run the vmware config.pl to compile.
