Make sure you have the package with kernel headers installed matching
your running kernel.

On debian it is linux-headers-`uname -r` to match the running
linux-image-`uname -r`.

once installed vmware will automatically follow the link in
/lib/modules/`uname -r`/build to know where the headers are.
