I see this page as nice summary for problems with vmware 7 and gentoo, so here's the solution: /dev/vmnet{0-9} did not exist.. for i in {0..8}; do \ mknod /dev/vmnet${i} c 119 $i; \ chown 600 /dev/vmnet${i}; done should create it. this worked for me, but u have to have vmware closed and restart (or start) the services -> sudo /etc/init.d/vmware start gl ps: the author of this page is free to contact me with the give email adress source: http://forum.soft32.com/linux/gentoo-vmware-vmnet-devices-ftopict323392.html I had some problems using vmnet (bridged and some other options).

And as i tried to tell everyone in my last post, i'm using the Kernel 2.6.32-gentoo-r7 kernel. As long as my portage says its the 'good' one, i'll stay using it. But when i need to upgrade (and rebuild the vmware modules), i'll be writing it here of my failure or success. greetz, dc and omg, good job my friend. u're listenting to the comments, think of it and change/improve things. i like u!
