Getting VMware Workstation 6.5 to work on AMD64 Ubuntu 9.04

without comments

If you get a segfault when trying to start vmware on Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope) you can fix the problem by moving /usr/lib/vmware/modules/binary to somewhere else (binary.old) will do.

The included 64 bit binaries cause vmware to segfault when starting up.

Good luck!
