did you read the Fedora Release Notes? There it says:
VMware WS 4.5.2 is known to work on Fedora Core 3 after the following
workarounds are used:
o You must upgrade the kernel modules and configuration using the
unofficial vmware-any-any-* toolkit available from:
[5]http://platan.vc.cvut.cz/ftp/pub/vmware/
o After vmware-config.pl is run and the VMware modules are loaded, the
following command creates the /sys/class/* nodes needed for udev:
cp -rp /dev/vm* /etc/udev/devices/
-volker
