Gosse Automatix2 uses v1.04 - I think or it may be using v1.03. You can download both versions from the VMWare website. If I'm not mistaken, it downloads the .tar.gz binary and auto answers the questions for you. So in theory, it should just be a case of re-running the install and un-installing VMWare Server.

In that case he let stay the older files i think. And how can you fix the trouble with older files, is there program that can help?? I now that RPM and ohter packages can install and uninstall but if you use (.tar.gz) you need a good memory or database that's up to date (locate). Kind regards Gosse 2007/10/11, Ben Hayes <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: Richard Try downloading the software from VMWare - the Binary (.tar.gz). Extract the package, go into the VMWare directory and then run the install to remove it (I think this is how it's done). Let me know how you get on.

To find out, go to your Terminal 'sudo' and then 'locate VMWare' when he find the location take a look. How to solve this problem? Tell me if you have the answer i like to know that also. Kind regards Gosse 2007/10/10, Eron Smith <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: I have used Automatix2 to install VMWARE Server on my computer (Ubuntu Feisty) and a newer version of the VMWare Server was released. I used Automatix2 to uninstall VMWare Server but when I try to reinstall it I keep getting a message that suggests there is already a version of VMWare Server installed which needs to be removed. How do I sort that out?
