Depending on which version of the server and which architecure, you may 
want to have the latest any-to-any for wmware (only available as a 
.tar.gz) installed as well.

For more complete answers, please tell us the details of your problem, 
including the exact package names if possible.  VMWare has more 
different versions of its product than I think are actually necessary.
