David - at this point I'd try a couple of things. Since you've upgraded your linux-headers, it's a good idea to recompile your system libc, as per the elog message.
Also, since you're getting version error messages, recompile your kernel and reboot into it. Just to make sure, as you've just done headers and libc (may be a long shot, but may as well rule it out). Then unload all vm* modules and recompile them also. (Say no to all vmware-config questions first, then second time around say yes!). If it doesn't work, downgrade to a previous version of modules and try them. I use vmware-modules-1.0.0.11-r1 because that's the only version that works with workstation 4, which I have a license for. Finally, if this all still fails, try with an earlier kernel and see if it magically works. Then you know it's probably a new kernal feature thats bugging you! I hope you have a few spare clock cycles for all this compiling :) HTH, -- Iain Buchanan <iaindb at netspace dot net dot au> The state law of Pennsylvania prohibits singing in the bathtub. -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
