Did you rebuild the Vmware kernel module(s) from scratch? Make sure you
do so each time you update to a newer kernel version, as it's important
the data structures referenced by the module be the same version as the
ones referenced by the kernel you're running. I've seen precisely this
output when my kernel module has been out of sync, previously. If it's in
sync, well, I guess it's a different problem :-)
