Great Guide,

One question…

How do I uninstall the VMware Server 2.0, when I decide I don’t want it?

Hi, i did try the procedure defined above but for me it is unsuccessful. I have the following error (i hope you have an idea how to solve that):

Hi Xavier,

if you created your file using a diferent user than root, and you are looged on that account, then you should follow these steps,

cd ~/.
mkdir .vmware
gedit ~/.vmware/config

hope it will be useful

gedit ~/.vmware/config

I use ubuntu 8.10 64 bits and arrows of my keyboard during install does not function.
