i downloaded the files,
rpm -Uvh vmware-blah.rpm

then i ran the vmware-config.pl.
answered the questions and from there i just started vmware in X, installed 
guest OS.

perhaps it is something to do with your kernel version.
for once, something just worked without compiling or other hassles for me. ;-)
i am running 2.4.3-20smp LM8.0

i did have to install as root. 

HTH.
