VMware server and openSuSE 11.1

I upgraded my laptop from openSuSE 10.3 to 11.3. The compilation of the vmmon modules failed with the message:

The update from VMware server 1.0.7 to 1.0.8 did not solve the problem - the error message was the same afterwards.

 

 

The problem seems not to be caused by the PAE support, because I tried with the default kernel, too. An update to VMware 2.0 is not the solution because of the lack of disk space.
