Well, then that was only part of the problem. Two ideas I can offer:

 - There might be other files with broken permissions. You could try
finding them with something like:

    find /opt/vmware -perm 0400 -o -perm 0600 -o -perm 0700

If this finds any, set the permissions correctly (usually the owner and
group have the same permission bits, and the write bit is removed for
world).

 - Try to run "revdep-rebuild -pv" and see if you have any broken
dependencies in libraries used by vmware, and if so, re-emerge them.

Personally, I would *never* ever do that. But hey, it's your computer.
