If you are already running VMWare 4.0.5, your key should work in VMWare 4.5 beta (build 7174). To use it on rawhide's 2.6 kernel you need Petr Vandrovec's vmware-any-any-update*.tar.gz, however the newer rawhide kernels with 4G/4G enabled needs a further patch. I had to uninstall VMWare 4.0.5 and re-install the 4.5 RPM, then install vmware-any-any*, then patch vmware-config.pl to disable a sanity check that prevents it from detecting the kernel headers in /lib/modules/VERSION. Cool, it seems to have fixed the "static in sound output" problem when I play music from Real Rhapsody.

Mostly busy with school work and still struggling with health problems, so being very useful for Fedora at the moment.
