Trying to find a suitable vmmon module for your running kernel.

Using compiler "/usr/bin/gcc". Use environment variable CC to override.
What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running
kernel? [/lib/modules/2.6.24.4-64.fc8/build/include]

以上为问题描述：
解决：
1 下载：vmware-any-any-update115
2 解压--> 后--> 进入目录： cd vmware-any-any-update115
3 解开vmmon.tar文件：tar -xf vmmon.tar
4 下载：Either change "#include
到vmware-any-any-update115目录
5 执行命令：
# patch -p0 < vmware-any-any-update115-bitops.patch
# rm vmmon.tar
# tar -cf vmmon.tar vmmon-only
# rm -rf vmmon-only
6 最后执行 : #./runme.pl
一路绿灯了。
手动处理方式：No worries the solution is right at hand.
1、Get the vmware-any-any patch
2、After unpacking, go to the vmware-any-any-update115 directory and unpack vmmon.tar
3、Open vmmon-only/include/vcpuset.h and change the following line #include "asm/bitops.h" to #include "linux/bitops.h"
4、Open vmmon-only/include/iocontrolscompat.h and change VMMONVERSION_V6 to 167
5、Open vmmon-only/include/iocontrols.h and change VMMON_VERSION to 167
6、Pack a new vmmon.tar and then run runme.pl
The resulting patch
