ok well this time, going from 2.6.24-19-generic to 2.6.24-21-generic, an
uninstall and reinstall of vmware has it running again. were complaints
during the install about the version of gcc not matching and that vmware
might crash, however it seems fine.
no doubt the upgrade to intrepid, when it completes, is going to break
it again . . .
Cheers,
Roger

Maybe that's the one i need to fix my broken vmware server 2 at home
after accepting the remaining patches adept was offering. I've not
had a chance to look around yet. Though that's a hardy box and from
memory that's 2.6.24-something, so maybe not.
Thought that might happen - it certainly sucks that vmware breaks
every time there's a new kernel version!
Yay, it's friday...

I've found a patch for vmware server for the latest kernels:
http://www.insecure.ws/warehouse/vmware-update-2.6.27-5.5.7-2.tar.gz
Just proven that it works with Ubuntu Intrepid.
(But I'm also downloading 2.0 to give it another go.)
