Same here. Using the latest vmware-any-any.tar.gz patch on VMware
Workstation 5.5, the compiler flags a few warnings, but it compiles and
runs just fine.

I also just loaded VMware Server GA version on FC5 with the same kernel
update (2.6.17-1.2157). It compiles flawlessly out of the box with no
warnings at all (no patches required).

Cheers,

Chris

This problem occurs with post FC5 kernels (e.g., Rawhide kernels).

any-any-101 (latest) should work for any pre 2.6.18-rc1 kernel (ie.
2339 or earlier).  After that, Rawhide went to 2.6.18-rc1 kernels.

If you have this working with latest VMWware workstation and post
.2339 kernel (i.e., on 2.6.18-rc1 kernel), please post how you did
it......

Otherwise, I believe we need to await 'deeper' patching.
