Same here. The SRPM doesn't compile.

Reporter is it possible you updated to rawhide not just X updates? The F8 released version is: xorg-x11-drv-vmware-10.15.2-1.fc8.x86_64.rpm with xorg version: xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.3.0.0-33.fc8.x86_64.rpm Updates to F8 now have a new xorg server but not the vmware driver: xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.3.0.0-37.fc8.x86_64.rpm The error: (EE) module ABI major version (1) doesn't match the server's version (3) Only happens for me with Rawhide's version of Xorg, not the F8 version (original and the updated version both work fine). In F8 fully updated as of today (fresh install + updates) this driver version works for me in VMWare Fusion 1.1 on osx 10.5 (with and without the vmware tools). Using this xorg-x11-drv-vmware with the Rawhide X updates does not work (but there is no update for this driver yet). Which VMWare Player version are you using?
>> Reporter is it possible you updated to rawhide not just X updates? Don't know. Just did plain "yum update", without any reconfiguration. >> Which VMWare Player version are you using? Right now I'm on vacations, so I can't answer you. But I immagine that is the last version available from vmware, as I recently updated it. >> In F8 fully updated as of today (fresh install + updates) this driver version >> works for me in VMWare Fusion 1.1 on osx 10.5 (with and without the vmware >> tools). When I come back from vacations I'll try it.
Fixed in xorg-x11-drv-vmware 10.15.2-99.1.fc9, closing.
