Since we have contributed the driver to the mainline Linux kernel we have 
decided to remove it from open-vm-tools package to avoid dealing with too many 
versions of the code base. You can ether backport it yourself from the 
mainline or fetch a version that builds on multitude of kernels from the 
official VMware Tools package you get with the platform.

Thanks,
