I'm a happy vmware server user on gentoo.
But I did try following the guidelines on that url you supplied, and I wasn't able to start vmware.
I did found a work around, first emerge vmware-workstation, when that's done untar the vmware-server in /opt.
And then run the vmware-install.pl, this will overwrite the vmware-workstation files. And last thing run vmware-config.pl.
If everything when according to plan, the vmware-config script will start the vmware service.
One more thing I did, was manually remove vmware-workstation from world.

List members -
Does anyone on the list have any experience with installing
vmware-server on a gentoo box. I followed the directions found at
http://diaryproducts.net/about/operating_systems/unix/installing_vmware_server_on_gentoo_linux_part_2
but I can't get the vmware service to start. Any help or suggestions
any one might have would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
James

I have plenty of common sense,
I just choose to ignore it.
