I installed "VMware-server-2.0.2-203138.i386.rpm". The vmware-config.pl script fails:
I read <http://en.opensuse.org/Vmware>, it mentions the howto at <http://opensuse.swerdna.org/susevmwareserver.html>, which says to apply a patch (http://opensuse.swerdna.org/vmware/patch.txt), but running the script fails again:
http://communities.vmware.com/message/1403987 is the thread that links to the patch that has worked for most people; including several ones using 11.2.
I assume you mean this post: ]> Using Michele's script, I have built my own script that helps you install VMware Server 2.0.x without having to stop in the middle to apply the patch.

The link is "How to install VMware Server 2.0.x on Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala" at <http://radu.cotescu.com/2009/10/30/how-to-install-vmware-server-2-0-x-on-ubuntu-9-10-karmic-koala/>. It goes:
# Download VMware Server (2.0.1 or 2.0.2) – gz format, not rpm. For the 2.0.2 version you might need to wait a couple of hours until you will receive the license key. Whichever version you choose, keep the license key near. # Download my script from here (right click, save as).
The hack seems to be to patch something at the same time as the install script for the tgx runs. Tlell me of running trhough loops! :-/ The script it referst to is at <http://codebin.cotescu.com/vmware/vmware-serve r-2.0.x-kernel-2.6.31-14-install.sh>. Havint a look at it, I see: VMWARE_HOME=$1 PATCH="vmware-server-2.0.x_x64-modules-2.6.30.4-fix.patch" STOP! I don't have an x64 machine. This is 32 bit... useless patch, then. [...] I'll try anyway... but I have to download the tgz instead of the rpm for it :-( - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
