Hi James,
That would happend if install the sources after you update the kernel, what I mean is I installed the os and updated the kernel and then I installed the sources to compile VMware and got an error message about a mismatch. You have to also reboot in some situations like after Read James's message, George. It is not simply a need to reboot. The kernel version and the sources version in the repository are different:

Best I can suggest for James to try is install the kernel-source src.rpm from http://software.opensuse.org/download/repositories/Kernel/SUSE_Linux_10.1/sr... and compile it.
That's what I've had to do to overcome this problem with asterisk zaptel
drivers and ndiswrapper, after that vmware had no problems. I'm sure
this will cause lots of queries on various lists.
