The vmware modules will not compile properly under 2.4.19-pre4-ac1, or
under 2.4.19-pre2-ac2, but compile fine on their mainline kernel
counterparts. Here is the errors that I get from vmware-config.pl:

Building the vmmon module.

make: Entering directory `/tmp/vmware-config1/vmmon-only'
make[1]: Entering directory `/tmp/vmware-config1/vmmon-only'
make[2]: Entering directory

In file included from .././linux/driver.c:38:

make: *** [auto-build] Error 2

Unable to build the vmmon module.

Also, under 2.4.19-pre4-ac1, when the emu10k1 module is loaded, I get a
large amount of constant static until I rmmod it. 2.4.19-pre4's
initialization of the emu10k1 driver is fine, and when the emu10k1
driver is replaced with the latest CVS version of the emu10k1 driver,
it initializes and performs normally.
