Please excuse me for that... I installed VMware Workstation 4.5.2 build-8848 under Ubuntu linux (kernel 2.6.10-5-k7-smp), and every time I reboot vmware ask me to reconfigure through the vmware-config.pl script. Everything than works fine, however is a little annoying. I browsed a little and find out that some debian users experienced the same problem, however I did'n find a solution, exept that the problem has been solved for the Workstation 5. Sombody say that one could mess with the /etc/udev/links.conf file, however I didn't understand how (i switched from suse to ubunt since two days). Here is what I found:
"The issue is that the vmware modules don't create sysfs entries so udev doesn't pick them up and create device nodes. In /etc/udev there is a file called links.conf The form... M node fooargs ...in links.conf transforms into... mknod --mode=600 /dev/$node $fooargs ... in the udev init script That of course forces the nodes to be mode 0600 (-rw-------) but you can almost certainly do something with that.
