while installing 64-bit VMware Server 2.0.0 build-116503 on 64-bit Ubuntu 8.10 (intrepid) I get problems with vsock module ... everything else seems to be fine
Building the vsock module.
Using 2.6.x kernel build system.

There is probably a slight difference in the kernel configuration between the
set of C header files you specified and your running kernel. You may want to
rebuild a kernel based on that directory, or specify another directory.
