i did. it was not a problem with vmware-config, it was a problem with
vmware.  vmware-config worked fine, it built everything it needed to 
build, it started the services it needed and exited without error.  it was 
when i ran vmware (after vmware-config had said everything was 
perfect) that there would be problems.  vmware would not run.

i've got it working now though.  after many kernel builds tweaking
many different things :).  i wasn't tweaking things for vmware, i had
put that on the back burner.  instead, my building a new kernel had
made my cd stop working (cd-r) and the cd-rw stop working also
(naturally).  

after many tries (and minimal documentation reading) i've finally 
got a config that makes everything (almost) work.  the CD works, 
the CD-writer works and quite by accident, vmware started 
working :).

now i'm working on the sound card. and after that, the printer :) 

one of these days i'm going to get everything working correctly. 
until i download another kernel and mess up the config all over
again :).

oh, btw, thanks for pointing matt baluyos at me.  we're in contact
now.
