Hoje precisei instalar o VMWare Server na minha estação de trabalho, e, pra quem já instalou o VMware em kernels recentes, conhece o famoso vmware-any-any. O erro que retornava ao tentar rodar o config:
Using 2.6.x kernel build system. make: Entering directory `/tmp/vmware-config2/vmmon-only' make -C /lib/modules/2.6.24-12-generic/build/include/..

Entretanto, a versão do vmware-any-any disponível no site http://knihovny.cvut.cz/ftp/pub/vmware/ , é a 115 e ela não funcionou.
Pesquisando um pouco, achei referência a http://groups.google.com/group/vmkernelnewbies/files?hl=en onde existe a versão 116, que funcionou perfeitamente. Finalizando:

Before running VMware for the first time after update, you need to configure it for your running kernel by invoking the following command: "/usr/bin/vmware-config.pl". Do you want this script to invoke the command for you now? [yes] [...] Building modules, stage 2.

Olá. Como um leigo que sou no Ubuntu, pediria que, se for possível elaborar um tutorial completo para leigos,como instalar o vmware server no Ubuntu 8.04, assim como existe para o virtualbox - http://hamacker.wordpress.com/2008/06/11/virtualbox-personal-edition-para-ubuntu-hardy-heron/.
Obrigado pela atenção. Viva a liberdade - Viva o Linux - Viva o Ubuntu.
Um abraço.
Eliel.
esse patch é desnecessário com a versão 1.0.6 do vmware.
Baixe a versão 1.0.6
wget http://download3.vmware.com/software/vmserver/VMware-server-1.0.6-91891.tar.gz
Descompacte
tar xvfz VMware-server-1.0.6-91891.tar.gz
E instale:
cd vmware-server-distrib/
sudo ./vmware-install.pl
No final apenas é necessário este passo;
sudo ln -sf /lib/libgcc_s.so.1 /usr/lib/vmware/lib/libgcc_s.so.1/libgcc_s.so.1
Jóia, estava com a 1.0.5, depois vou atualizar.
Sylvester valeu mesmo, funcionou aqui, depois de passar uns maus momentos e ate querer desistir do linux essa dica ai funcionou mesmo, eu ate pensei que vmware num rolava no meu note
unica coisa que fiz alem disso foi instalar o tal do xnet.. sei la, acho que e isso mas foi so isso mesmo.
aqui rodou.
