How to install VMware Server on Ubuntu 8.04

Another note to myself.

  1. wget http://download3.vmware.com/software/vmserver/VMware-server-1.0.6-91891.tar.gz
  2. apt-get install build-essential linux-kernel-devel linux-headers-generic xinetd
  3. tar -xzvf VMware-server-1.0.6-91891.tar.gz
  4. cd vmware-server-distrib && ./vmware-install.pl
  5. ln -sf /usr/lib/gcc/i486-linux-gnu/4.2.3/libgcc_s.so /usr/lib/vmware/lib/libgcc_s.so.1/libgcc_s.so.1 && ln -sf /usr/lib/libpng12.so.0 /usr/lib/vmware/lib/libpng12.so.0/libpng12.so.0

That’s it.
