VMWare:
You'll need to edit /usr/bin/vmware-config.pl
1. Replace all occurances of /proc/ksyms with /proc/kallsyms
2. Untar vmnet.tar in /usr/lib/vmware/modules/source
* Edit bridge.c
* On line 368, change: atomic_add(skb->truesize,
&sk->wmem_alloc); into atomic_add(skb->truesize, &sk->sk_wmem_alloc);<
* On line 618, change protinfo into sk_protinfo
* Likewise, on line 817, change protinfo into sk_protinfo
3. Tar the vmnet directory, and replace vmnet.tar
4. Run /usr/bin/vmware-config.pl - it should run without a problem.
