Running VMWare Workstation on an Ubuntu upgraded to 6.10

I upgrade my Ubuntu 6.06 to 6.10 and VMWare Workstation don't run anymore!

This is because vmmon need compile again. When you run /usr/bin/vmware-config.pl for compile vmmon this tool finish with the following error.

Using 2.6.x kernel build system.
