My VMWare server seems to be working on upgrade from 8.10 to 9.04
by a new install (using the same base) did not

The trick is to regrab all the updated bits:

Using this as a template: http://geekzine.org/2008/11/20/install-vmware-server-on-ubuntu-intrepid-810/

Grab the latest requirements:
apt-get install linux-source-2.6.28 linux-libc-dev xinetd

The latest VMware:
wget http://download3.vmware.com/software/vmserver/VMware-server-1.0.9-156507.tar.gz

and the latest patch:
