here's my issue

installed VMWare workstation 4.5.2 (I think)
run the vmware-config.pl  ..  ok to this point
installed guest OS (WIN2K) .. still ok a this point.
everything is ok....

reboot laptop ..

try to run vmware .. I have to run the vmware-config.pl again to make it
work. everytime I reboot I have to run the vmware-config.pl script to make
it work again. I know there is something I am not doing. I tried to read
about it and I thought you have to rebuild the kernel and include the new
modules in the new build?? does that make sense?? I have never had to
rebuld the kernel yet. I am not against it, but I don't know how.

well, there is my issue .... any thoughts?

You must have missed the thread on this earlier today.

After you have run vmware-config.pl, do:

# cp -rp /dev/vm* /etc/udev/devices
# chkconfig vmware reset

You only need to do these once.

I'm assuming that you have the FC3 errata update for the udev package
(http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/3/i386/udev-039-10.FC3.6.i386.rpm) installed.
