I have had the same issues in the past with VMWare as well. I know that this is something which has been debated in the forums on their site. A guy by the name of Petr Vandrovec put together a series of patches for the vmnet and vmmon modules. His ftp site is ftp://platan.vc.cvut.cz/pub/vmware/. The latest patch version there is vmware-any-any-update25.tar.gz. That will get your installation up and going. I have installed it on my systems and have had some luck with it. I have noticed that vmware will still hiccup every now and again though. I just checked the ftp site and found that there is another patch file there called vmware-rh-patch.tar.gz and the date looks like it is the most recent. Maybe this is the one that should be used instead?
