Gutsy and Vmware

[Bart Silverstrim]

Speaking of virtualization...

The vmware-server from repositories that was working under 7.04 no 
longer works under 7.10, and it looks like the repositories are not 
longer the same for downloading it.  It launches, but it gives a general 
"cannot start the VM"-type error when I try launching the VM.

I found a site that tells you to download a "vmware-any-any-update114" 
and extract it and run the perl script to fix it up.  Thing is, I have 
the file, extracted it, but don't know if I can trust it since the site 
doesn't seem to be from or related to VMWare, so I didn't run it.

Has anyone found a fix for this, or know of any chatter about getting it 
fixed in the near-future?  I'd like to keep it installed via the 
debs/repository, so I won't potentially contend with littering my system 
with crap all over the place or having cruft from updates/upgrades 
manually done.

Info? Tips? Ideas?
