IIRC, kernel modules can't be built against linux kernel 2.6.25. There
are patches floating around, but I'm not sure which ones are current and
would work for you.
See, e.g.
http://www.tfug.org/pipermail/tfug/2008-April/018337.html to
get you started.

P.S. I gave up on vmware and I am now using VirtualBox (free, at least
as in beer, though it does contain some non-oss parts. iirc, it's
software that is installed onto the guest system that's tainting the
license, but I'm not sure) for my desktop virtualization needs. Search
the archives of this list for my message from April 16th to see how to
get it to work (should be much easier) — if you aren't tied too tight to
vmware.
I've been fairly happy with VMware for several years. I use it
exclusively to run Win XP when I have to. The new version (6.5, now in
beta) has an interesting drag-and-drop feature between host and guest
desktops, which I'd like to try, but for now I'm just trying to get back
to version 6.0.3 which worked fine on F8.
I had a desultory look at KVM+QEMU a while back and couldn't get
anywhere (a mysterious message about not finding a console, I forget
exactly what it was). Maybe I'll have another go. I'm afraid the docs
leave a lot to be desired.
