I'm trying to install VMware Workstation and I'm using
 gentoo-sources-2.4.20-r3 as my kernel. I'm having
some problems building the vmmon module. I looked at
the VMware troubleshooting web page and it says that
they do not support certain kernels yet. I was
wondering if any Gentoo users have installed VMware
successfully and with what kernels. Here's the build
errors I get when trying to build vmmon.
