I know it's a dead horse I'm beating here, but one big reason I switched from 
VMWare to QEMU was because of the numerous problems (and efforts required to 
solve them) that I ran into with VMWare's kernel modules.  It really is much 
easier to get working, since it's already packaged and ready in most cases.
