You'll have to wait for the 2nd beta release of VMWare Workstation 5.0
(if you're on the beta program) which i've been told will contain udev
support. Probably just a few weeks away...

On a more general note, is there any sort of communications between Red
Hat people (who have phones on their desk) and the very few companies
that do groundbreaking linux support (Nvidia, VMWare, ...) as far as
release schedules and support for new kernel features ? Just asking...
