I think it would be more accurate to say the keyboard and mouse are 
special exceptions and that no other USB devices work under the current 
releases of openSUSE 10.2 and VMware.

This may be an adequate solution for me (I use VMware 
Workstation--currently version 5.5), but my friend is using VMware 
server (the zero-cost version).

All this I know and have done successfully. This, however, omits two 
things I need: The ability to transport the kernel to another system 
(possibly avoidable if I can coach my friend to build the kernel 
himself) and the ability to successfully complete the VMware 
configuration script under the new kernel.
