Did you configure the vmnet settings identically?  vmware-package
installs a typically configuration (vmnet0 bridged to eth0, vmnet1 host
only, vmnet8 NAT) while the vmware configure script prompts you to
enable each of these.

Also, your networkmanager error message refers to eth2.  vmware's
network interfaces are not named eth%d, nor does vmware rename such
interfaces.
