All,

I've run into the exact same problem myself, however I've not come up with
a resolution.  I, too, am running -22mdk.  Rebuilding the kernel and 
modules thus far hasn't worked.  I've pondered possibly deleting my
present set of modules, then rebuilding them to see what happens as a depmod
produces output that indicates I still have some modules left that weren't
compiled with the last build but were from a previous build and left out 
when I did the last make xconfig.  Could that be what vmware is pissin'
and moanin' about?
