None of the pre-built vmmon modules for VMware Server 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]

What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running
kernel? [/lib/modules/2.6.26.5-45.fc9.i686/build/include]

[root@localhost Download]# yum remove Vmware-server-1.0.7
Other approach, but same result :
[root@localhost Download]# tar -xvzf VMware-server-1.0.7-108231.tar.gz
[root@localhost vmware-any-any-update109]# ./runme.pl
Same output...
I've tried also with the vmware-any-any-update109-patch but when I run :
[root@localhost vmware-any-any-update109]# ./runme.pl
