Arch and VMWare

I really love archlinux and using it as my main operating system. However, i am in a trouble a little about OS and Server virtualization. As you know arch is very current GNU Linux distro and that causes some problems about the things depended on Kernel and requires less then recent kernel. It is very difficult to keep VMWare patches sync with kernel stuff. I installed the VMWare Server to my archlinux with related any-any patches. After the successful installation, I got errors when I tried to run any operating system. When tried to see the logs from /var/log/vmware I got some clues about the problem. The error is below;

Sep 18 18:02:54: app| Msg_Post: Version mismatch with vmmon module: expecting 138.0, got 168.0. Sep 18 18:02:54: app| You have an incorrect version of the `vmmon’ kernel module. Sep 18 18:02:54: app| Try reinstalling VMware Server. Sep 18 18:02:54: app| Sep 18 18:02:54: app| Msg_Post: Error Sep 18 18:02:54: app| [msg.vmmonPosix.initFailed] Failed to initialize monitor device. Sep 18 18:02:54: app| [localized] Failed to initialize monitor device.

My kernel is 2.6.26 and with VMWare patch 117d any-any. OS and Server virtualization is quite important for me, because i am working in an information security company and i have to run multiple operating systems on my GNU Linux disto. I have to change my operating system to Ubuntu according to the things above, but my archlove is not finishing. I am still translating Arch Wikis to my own language and also write small scripts fot her :P
