If you already have VMware Server installed and want it to use the Feisty modules you can jump to Step 3

Step 1 (Installing the modules from repository)
$ sudo apt-get install vmware-server-kernel-modules

Step 2 (Installing VMware Server)
$ tar -xzf VMware-server-1.0.1-29996.tar.gz
$ cd vmware-server-distrib/
$ ./vmware-install.pl

Step 3 (Make VMware Server Daemon work with Feisty modules)
$ sudo sed -i -e "s/\/sbin\/insmod -s -f \"\/lib\/modules\/\`uname -r\`\/misc\/\$1.o\"/modprobe -s -f \$1/" /etc/init.d/vmware

Step 4 (Make the configure script ignore the configure of a new module)
$ sudo sed -i -e "s/sub configure_module {/sub configure_module {\n return 'yes';/" /usr/bin/vmware-config.pl

Step 5 (Reconfigure)
$ sudo vmware-config.pl

Step 6(Restarting the application)
$ sudo /etc/init.d/vmware restart

What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running
kernel? [/lib/modules/2.6.20-15-generic/build/include]

安装 vmware-server-kernel-modules 这个以后，就没有提示需要编译内核驱动了。
