Of course:

guru@current:~> uname -a
FreeBSD current.Sisis.de 8.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 8.0-CURRENT #5: Sun Jan 10 09:55:14 CET 2010     guru@current.Sisis.de:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386
guru@current:~> ls -l /usr/src/CVS
total 8
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  654 28 may  2009 Entries
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel    4 19 may  2009 Repository
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel   51 19 may  2009 Root
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  660 19 may  2009 Template

As I said, the kernel and user land is based on what was in CVS in May
2009. Later I incorparated some new USB stuff, that's why the build is
from Januar 2010.

I tried to install the vmware-freebsd-tools.tar.gz directly as
VMWare.com it provides (I have compat6x already installed for some other
reason). But in vmware-freebsd-tools.tar.gz there are only kernel
modules for FreeBSD 6 and 7 and using the modules for 7 it crashes, ofc.

Who can I get the tools installed?

Thanks
