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

None of the pre-built vmmon modules for VMware Workstation is suitable for your
running kernel.  Do you want this program to try to build the vmmon module for
your system (you need to have a C compiler installed on your system)? [yes]

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/2.6.18-suspend2/build/include]

You have already setup networking.

Would you like to skip networking setup and keep your old settings as they are?
(yes/no) [yes]

Do you want this program to automatically configure your system to allow your
virtual machines to access the host's filesystem? (yes/no/help) [no]

This program previously created the file /etc/vmware/not_configured, and was
about to remove it.  Somebody else apparently did it already.

Starting VMware services:
   Virtual machine monitor                                             done
   Virtual ethernet                                                    done
   Bridged networking on /dev/vmnet0                                   done

The configuration of VMware Workstation 4.5.3 build-19414 for Linux for this
running kernel completed successfully.

You can now run VMware Workstation by invoking the following command:
"/opt/vmware/workstation/bin/vmware".

Enjoy,
