Trying to install vmware. I make it to the config.pl part. Run
it and this is what I get:

Building the vmnet module.
 
make: Entering directory `/tmp/vmware-config0/vmnet-only'
make: Leaving directory `/tmp/vmware-config0/vmnet-only'
Unable to make a vmnet module that can be loaded in the running
kernel:
insmod: a module named vmnet already exists
There is probably a slight difference in the kernel
configuration between the
set of C header files you specified and your running kernel. 
You may want to
rebuild a kernel based on that directory, or specify another
directory.

problems, please
visit our Web site at
"http://www.vmware.com/download/modules/modules.html"; and
"http://www.vmware.com/support/reference/linux/prebuilt_modules_linux.html";.
 
Execution aborted.

So I go and try to locate this vmnet module that supposably
exists and this is what I get:

Any ideas what I can('t) delete safely that might make this work
correctly? Tried posting it to the forums but I keep getting
time out errors when I submit...
