Problems getting VMware Server to work on Ubuntu 9.10

"Seems I got it working, with advice from
http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-vmware-server-2-0-x-in-ubuntu-9-10-karmic.html

Download this: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/images/vmware-server.2.0.1_x64-modules-2.6.30.4-fix.tgz and untar it. (This is for 2.0.1 but that does not seem to matter.)
Run sudo sh vmware-server.2.0.1_x64-modules-2.6.30.4-fix.sh

NB: If you have VMware libs installed somewhere else than /usr/lib/ (e.g. /usr/local/lib), you'll need to manually fix some paths in that script.
Then, as the script suggested, sudo vmware-config.pl -d

This finished up the configuration:

[...]

The configuration of VMware Server 2.0.2 build-203138 for Linux for this
running kernel completed successfully.

Running vmware now launches the web UI at localhost:8333/ui/.

(Now, VMware 2.0 feels totally strange, and I don't really know how to access/use the web interface, but that's another story... In fact, if anyone knows of an easy way of getting VMware Server 1.0.10 to work with the latest Ubuntu, I'd like to know too!)

Update

I've given up using VMware Server altogether as it's no longer supported and it's become increasingly difficult to get it working on modern Ubuntu versions. If you need to create & run Windows virtual machines, check out e.g. this question on Ask Ubuntu for alternative ways."
