VMWare Server-64bit in Arch64

There is a 64-bit version of VMWare2 available from vmware's site. Has anyone used this to install vmware server on Arch64?

Re: VMWare Server-64bit in Arch64

Well, I got the tarbal for VMWare2.0 from their website. I followed the guide for installing VMWare in 32-bit Arch with the exception of running the any-to-any patch. I'm running a default kernel and everything worked as is.

EDIT: Changed website link to point directly at download page. Click on Download Now under VMWare Server 2.0 and it will take you to a page where you can register for your free serial and then get the download.

I've had the 64bit workstation version working on my Arch64 install. No problems  installing, although I personally find virtualbox to work better for what I want to be honest.

I changed the link to point to as close as I can get to the download without signing in. I just got VMware2.0 .tar file for 64-bit Linux.
