Sorry, I forgot to cut & paste the vmware-config.pl output - I gave you 
the sizle with no steak:

Do you accept? (yes/no) yes

Thank you.

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] yes

Using compiler "/usr/bin/gcc". Use environment variable CC to override.

What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your 
running
kernel? [/lib/modules/2.6.11-1.1369_FC4/build/include]

Extracting the sources of the vmmon module.
