Hi;

For the 2.6.24 kernel you should use the "a" version of any-any from:
http://rtr.ca/vmware-2.6.24/

Also, there was an exploit found in the 2.6.24 kernel, you should be
using 2.6.24.2 as a minimum:

Good luck!

Hmmm, I didn't even notice, I just copied and pasted from a location
I'd found when I was researching the exploit.

Sorry for the faux-pas.
