Randall,
1. You may have other problems with your setup. The procedure I described allows to configure VMware. I have just finished doing it in my laptop (5th machine) and I have just sync my treo. 2. If you want to make your new kernel portable the best is to create an rpm but the procedure is a little more involved. I've done it with the 2.6.20 from the kernel.org and using the configuration from my present kernel except enabling usbfs. The MV configuration also works. 3. If you described step by step of what you did we may be able to find where the problem is.
