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.
