just tried the patch, works well on my system,
I am using vmware-server 2.0.2 and it depends on 1.0.0.24

by the way, bug #351592 has passed 1.0.0.25 as been resolved

Comment 6 Fabio Rossi 2011-01-20 20:55:35 UTC
The vmware-modules-1.0.0.24-r3.ebuild is wrong considering future kernel versions. I'm using 2.6.38-rc1 and doesn't work anymore...

Please change
  kernel_is 2 6 37 && epatch "${FILESDIR}/${PV}-sema.patch" 
to
  kernel_is ge 2 6 37 && epatch "${FILESDIR}/${PV}-sema.patch"
