I recently attempted to install the latest release of vmware server on Ubuntu Edgy. Much to my surprise I encountered great difficulty and many errors. After finally getting vmware running it decided to just stop running! What the hell? I wrote a full post of my story here (http://electrogeek.com/blog/2006/11/24/vmware-on-ubuntu-edgynot-for-beginners/).
Ubuntu.com was a huge resource which enabled me to get it running in the first place, now that it's dead again I am more than a bit frustrated. Has anyone else encountered issues with vmware on Edgy?

personally, vmware player + http://easyvmx.com satisfies my vmware needs.

Why don`t you try Automatix ?
