ubuntu 8.10已经出来好几天了，今天终于把把我的7.04换到了，我不喜欢夸版本升级，也说不出理由来～。今天把系统安装完后，把系统的游戏卸载掉。优化系统，由于以前的 vmware-server也是老版本的，所以在官方下载了vmware-server-1.0.7，可是在安装的时候出错了～
      错误如下： 
In which directory do you want to install the application's icon? 
[/usr/share/pixmaps] 

/usr/share/applications/vmware-server.desktop: warning: value "vmware-server.png" for key "Icon" in group "Desktop Entry" is an icon name with an extension, but there should be no extension as described in the Icon Theme Specification if the value is not an absolute path
/usr/share/applications/vmware-console-uri-handler.desktop: warning: value "vmware-server.png" for key "Icon" in group "Desktop Entry" is an icon name with an extension, but there should be no extension as described in the Icon Theme Specification if the value is not an absolute path
Trying to find a suitable vmmon module for your running kernel.

None of the pre-built vmmon modules for VMware Server is suitable for your 
running kernel.  Do you want this program to try to build the vmmon module for 
your system (you need to have a C compiler installed on your system)? [yes] 

Using compiler "/usr/bin/gcc". Use environment variable CC to override.

What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running
kernel? [/lib/modules/2.6.27-7-generic/build/include]

在网上搜索了很多文章打补丁，设么都没用，我想到可能是 内核于vmware有凭顶，就在google搜索2.6.27-7-generic  vmware-server搜索到几篇文章，可是，都被 大陆的 GFW和谐掉了，换代理上去，看到了原来要打一个 vmware-update-2.6.27-5.5.7-2.tar.gz 补丁～
安装补丁方法我在介绍下 ～
1.tar zxvf VMware-server-1.0.7-108231.tar.gz
  cd vmware-server-distrib
  ./vmware-install.p
安装到Do you want this program to try to build the vmmon module for your system?到这里要输入 “no”
2.tar zxvf  vmware-update-2.6.27-5.5.7-2.tar.gz
 cd vmware-update-2.6.27-5.5.7-2
  ./runme.pl
按提示或选择默认直到出现：“……Do you want this program to try to build the vmmon module for your system?” ，这次要在这里要输入” Yes“。
呵呵，这样 就OK了 ～
