Cool ... I only knew VMware but this looks good, I'll give it a try.

BTW, vmware-server package is in the canonical repository, maybe it's better to install it from here :

Repository to add :
deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu feisty-commercial main

Install :
sudo apt-get install vmware-server vmware-tools-kernel-modules

That's what I used in the tutorial.
