If you have the beta version then it will expire, mine did. Just download the 1.0 release version of VMWare Server, then get a new serial number and set it back up.
I am running Ubuntu 6.06 on a dual xeon 2.4 system with 1 GB of RAM and I run WindowsXP in vm and it's as fast as any XP machine I've ever run.
I LOVE my Ubuntu and VMWare combo!

I am using Drake x64 and Vmware Server. Everything was working fine until the update of a couple of days ago. Using 2.6.15-26-amd64-generic I now have problems whenever I restart my computer.
Trying to run Vmware Server I get:
vmware is installed, but it has not been (correctly) configured
for this system. To (re-)configure it, invoke the following command:
/usr/bin/vmware-config.pl.
Runninig the command I get:
mhoward@ubuntu:~$ sudo /usr/bin/vmware-config.pl
Password:
Making sure services for VMware Server are stopped.
Stopping VMware services:
Virtual machine monitor done
Bridged networking on /dev/vmnet0 done

DHCP server on /dev/vmnet8 done
NAT service on /dev/vmnet8 done
Host-only networking on /dev/vmnet8 done
Virtual ethernet failed
Unable to stop services for VMware Server
Execution aborted.
Once the services are manually stopped I run vmware-config.pl and it configs perfectly:
The configuration of VMware Server 1.0.0 build-28343 for Linux for this running
kernel completed successfully.
Vmware Server runs fine as long as I do not reboot. If I do reboot\restart I need to go through the entire config setup again!
Any suggestions?
Thanks!
