Group,

I've found the following files:
        VMware-server-vmmom-1.0.6-91891-2.6.26-1.patch
        VMware-server-vmnet-1.0.6-91891-2.6.26-1.patch

Along with these installation instructions:
#get tarball and install, do not run vmware-configure.pl when prompted#

#get patches and run aginst module archives#

cd /usr/lib/vmware/modules/source

tar -xf vmmon.tar
tar -xf vmnet.tar

cd vmmon-only
patch -p1 < VMware-server-vmmon-1.0.6-91891-2.6.26-1.patch
cd ..

cd /vmnet-only
patch -p1 < VMware-server-vmnet-1.0.6-91891-2.6.26-1.patch
cd ..

cp vmnet.tar vmnet.tar_orig
tar cf vmnet.tar vmnet-only
rm vmnet-only -r

cp vmmon.tar vmmon.tar_orig
tar cf vmmon.tar vmmon-only
rm vmmon-only -r

vmware-configure.pl

I also instructions referencing the application of these patches on a 
2.6.25-15 kernel.  Could this be the solutions to my problem?

TIA,
Gene Poole
