You have to install the compilation utilities (kernel-headers, gcc & make), which aren’t installed by default:
sudo apt-get install build-essential sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`
Install VMware Tools:
Right-click on your ubuntu virtual machine or use "VM" menu. Choose "Install VMware tools...". It will mount the distributive as cdrom. Run the following:
cp /cdrom/*.gz /usr/local/src/ cd /usr/local/src/ tar xvzf VM*.gz cd vmware* sudo ./vmware-install.pl
