Arghhh! Of course vmtoolsd is not a module, it's a service! Here are the
modules that could be something to do with vmware:

[root at imp ~]# lsmod |grep vm
vmw_balloon            13415  0 
vmw_vmci               67106  0 
vmwgfx                179730  2 
drm_kms_helper         98226  1 vmwgfx
ttm                    93488  1 vmwgfx
drm                   311588  5 ttm,drm_kms_helper,vmwgfx

Cheers
