I don't mean to highjack your thread, but am curious how you have managed to
load the vmware driver.
On a fresh install in VMware player, when I run the modinfo command, I only see
the vga driver loaded.

 92 fffffffff7ccc000   4898 276   1  vgatext (VGA text driver)

The vmware(7) man page suggests the vmware video adapter should be auto-detected
and automatically load the vmware driver.
This however does not seem to be the case.

modinfo only shows kernel drivers, not Xorg drivers, since Xorg drivers are just
*.so's dlopen'ed by a userspace process, not loaded into the kernel address 
space.

To see what drivers Xorg loaded, either check Xorg.0.log or run pldd on the Xorg
process.
