vmmon version mismatch with VMware Workstation 6.5.1 X86_64 in Linux kernel 2.6.28 Please help fix

Hello,

I am using Arch Linux X86_64,

I have the problem with the latest version fo vmware Workstation. When i try to run a vm i get the following error:

-vmmon version mismatch expected 208.0 got 161.0

I have tried to compile the vmmon using the .sh provided on my distributions wiki page for VMware Workstation but no luck.

Please someone help me solve this.

Thanks in advance
