Public bug reported:

Hello Friends,

I m getting trouble in running vmware server 1.0 and it fails to sart after 
getting distribution update from 
ubuntu 7.04 to ubuntu 7.10

In ubuntu 7.04 vmware server 1.0 was working well and running virtual PC's with 
full compatibility 
But after having distribution upgrade it crashed and failed to load vmware 
server gui and console both , 

My current distribution is : 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# 
Linux version 2.6.22-14-generic ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) (gcc version 4.1.3 20070929 
(prerelease) (Ubuntu 4.1.2-16ubuntu2)) #1 SMP Sun Oct 14 23:05:12 GMT 2007

Out put of vmware server is :

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/vmware# vmware
vmware is installed, but it has not been (correctly) configured
for this system. To (re-)configure it, invoke the following command:
/usr/bin/vmware-config.pl.

After getting re-configure i m getting following errors :

Trying to find a suitable vmmon module for your running kernel.

None of the pre-built vmmon modules for VMware Server is suitable for your 
running kernel.  Do you want this program to try to build the vmmon module for 
your system (you need to have a C compiler installed on your system)? [yes] 

Using compiler "/usr/bin/gcc". Use environment variable CC to override.

What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running
kernel? [/lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/build/include]
