When I search for vmware using Synaptic I see the list of categories
restricted to the System category, but no entries.
From a root shell:
# apt-get install vmware-server
Reading package lists... Done

I hadn't done a

Surely it could prompt the user to check that if they get no results?

Martin Cleaver, have you enabled the partner repo? That means you
should have a line like this in the /etc/apt/sources.list:
deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu gutsy partner
On my system:
$ apt-cache show vmware-server
Package: vmware-server
Priority: optional
Section: partner/misc
you must have missed something. I saw vmware-player in the partner
repo from the first day Gutsy was released. You can install it by
using Add/Remove Applications. Are you using x86-64 version of
Gutsy?
Yes, Gutsy on AMD64 CPU. I can see vmware-server, but only since it was
recently
@Ralph, this is really interesting. I tried those commands you've
tried and got same results. The only way I can see that VMware Player
is in Add/Remove Application GUI program. Start it from
Applications - Add/Remove Change the application category on
top-right corner to Third party
Thanks Yan. I realised player couldn't be upgraded to server, I was
trying to say that those with player installed from pre-Gutsy will
expect it to be upgraded one-day to a Gutsy player. If you're saying
that server is a super-set of player then that's fine and maybe we don't
need player on

What about vmware-player? That used to be in the old repo. structure
but hasn't appeared in the new one yet. Is it intended that it will?
I'm not sure of the differences between vmware-server and vmware-player
but having installed player people are going to expect an `apt-get
upgrade' to do its
Ralph, though from the same mother, vmware-server and vmware-player
are two different products, just like Mercedes-Benz 300 compared with
Benz 500. vmware-player is a light-weight player-only product with
limited management feature, while vmware-server is a full-fledged VM
product giving for free
Dare I suggest that users itching to get this use Automatix? The
supposed reports of automatix's demise after Gutsy were obviously
premature - VMware player and server, among other things, are in the
Automatix2 release.

Hey all, I see the vmware-server package is already in the partner repo,
try it. And close this bug if it's OK to you. It's not in the
Add/Remove... program, you'll have to use Synaptic to install it.

Just got to this bug after investigating why a friend's vmware-player
installation from 7.04's commercial repo no longer works after upgrading
to 7.10. We don't want to move away from repo-supplied packages since
smooth upgrades is one of its key advantages. However, it does seem

The needed kernel-module used to be in multiverse. So the real problem
is that there's no newly compiled kernel-module.

But if it is that simple to do, and there's rules files from previous
versions. Shouldn't a new package be out in less than 5 minutes if
someone decided to build one?
I'm sure the above solution works like a charm, but I'd prefer a
solution that's handeled by the package manager.

Yes, I've seen this as well in the Gutsy final release I just upgraded
to last night. vmware-server 1.0.3 will not run in Gutsy because of the
kernel modules mismatch.
Workaround:
1. Back up your license file found in: /etc/vmware/license.vs.1.0-00 or at
least save the serial contained in that
Just did this yesterday and it worked like a champ.

The additional problem with this is that once you have upgraded to the
kernel in gutsy you can no longer run vmware-server with the vmware-
server-kernel-modules package since there isn't one for the gutsy stream
kernels. Not only that, but I've been told by people in #ubuntu-kernel
there is no
