Installing VMware server in FC6

[Jeffrey D. Yuille]

Hello,

     I have seen several posts on how to successfully install VMware 
server in FC6.  It aborts during the installation and I can remember 
someone stating something about going into such and such folder and 
changing a line in a text file.  Problem is that I don't remember what 
changes I need to make.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,

     I went to the site above, but I am still not sure what file needs 
to be reconfigured.  The responses at the above link were not very 
clear.  What file do I need to change (or reconfigure) in order to 
complete the install of VMware server?

Hi,

I think vmware-any-any-update would solve your problem (http://ftp.cvut.cz/vmware/).
I was successful in installing VMwareServer in FC6.
