Hi all,
Next problem I got:
I'm trying to install VMware-workstation-4.0.5-6030.i386.rpm. Then rpm was installed, I ran vmware-config.pl and got next sudden result:

Trying to find a suitable vmmon module for your running kernel.
None of VMware Workstation's pre-built vmmon modules is suitable for your running kernel. Do you want this program to try to build the vmmon module for your system (you need to have a C compiler installed on your system)? [yes] Using compiler "/usr/bin/gcc". Use environment variable CC to override.
Your kernel was built with "gcc" version "3.2.3", while you are trying to use "/usr/bin/gcc" version "3.3.2". This configuration is not recommended and VMware
Workstation may crash if you'll continue. Please try to use exactly same compiler as one used for building your kernel. Do you want to go with compiler "/usr/bin/gcc" version "3.3.2" anyway? [no] What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running kernel? [/usr/src/linux-2.4/include] The path "y" is not an existing directory.
