Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: vmware-server-kernel-modules

Since updating to Gutsy-Kernel 2.6.22-15, the vmware-server won't start.
It look like the vmware-server-kernel-modules aren't available for Kernel 
2.6.22-15.
When I use Kernel 2.6.22-14, vmware runs without any problems.
I'm using the vmware-server Package from the 
"http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu/ gutsy partner" repository.
Here is the error-message from /var/log/vmware/vmware-serverd.log:
