issue using SUSe 9.1 after kernel update

From: Todd (tatung70_at_hotmail.com)

Date: Mon, 21 Jun 2004 11:10:52 -0500

I updated to the 2.6.5-7.65 kernel with YAST (I did nothing other than just
select all updates that YAST said I needed.)

After the update and a reboot, Vmware workstation will not start as it says
I need to run vmware-update.pl. I run this and get the below.

Using Vmware 4.5.1 on SuSE 9.1.

Thanks
