As always... If you are using VMware3.0, get
ftp://platan.vc.cvut.cz/pub/vmware/vmware-ws-1455-update12.tar.gz.
If you are using VMware2.0, you can try
ftp://platan.vc.cvut.cz/pub/vmware/vmware-ws-1142-update1.tar.gz,
but please note that I'll not create any further VMware 2.0 patches,
so if you plan using VMware 2.0 on 2.5.x kernels, you can either
create patch yourself, or upgrade to VMware3, and also that this
patch is completely untested, as it does not compile under 2.5.7
at all ;-)

The vmware modules will not compile properly under 2.4.19-pre4-ac1, or
under 2.4.19-pre2-ac2, but compile fine on their mainline kernel
counterparts. Here is the errors that I get from vmware-config.pl:
Building the vmmon module.

Unable to build the vmmon module.
Also, under 2.4.19-pre4-ac1, when the emu10k1 module is loaded, I get a
large amount of constant static until I rmmod it. 2.4.19-pre4's
initialization of the emu10k1 driver is fine, and when the emu10k1
driver is replaced with the latest CVS version of the emu10k1 driver,
it initializes and performs normally.

I think it would be easy to fix.. He wrote this:
/lib/modules/2.4.19-pre4-ac1/build/include/linux/malloc.h:4: #error
linux/malloc.h is deprecated, use linux/slab.h instead.
make[2]: *** [driver.d] Error 1
So change in the file where it appeared the
#include <linux/malloc.h>
to
#include <linux/slab.h>

They'll fix it eventually / in the 3.1 release, but you can look in
the source tarballs and change the #include to include slab.h instead
of malloc.h if you're impatient.
See: /usr/lib/mvmware/modules/source/*.tar

Replace all #include <linux/malloc.h> by #include <linux/slab.h> as the
#error says -- I tried that, and it works for me with 2.4.19-pre3-ac4.
