#!usr/bin/python
'''
 Author:This script was written by me [pyth0n3] to download 
 and apply the  patch
 written by Radu Cotescu [http://radu.cotescu.com/] for VMware Server 2.0.2
 To do:
 First you need to download the VMware Server 2.0.2
 [http://downloads.vmware.com/d/info/datacenter_downloads/vmware_server/2_0]
 
 Extract VMware Server:

 tar -xzf VMware-server-2.0.2-203138.i386.tar.gz

 Run this script in the same directory where you have 
 extracted the  previous package , it will apply the patch and
 Run VMWare installer
 (Tested by me on Ubuntu and Debian distribution) 
 
 Purpose: Adds support for newer versions of the Linux kernel 
 and does not require it to be recompiled
 
 Features:
 Add support for versions of the Linux Kernel that implement COW 
 credentials.
 Add support for net_device_ops structure.
 Add support for netdev_priv().
 Remove references to init_mm structure by removing APIC support for 
 2.6.25 and later (APIC code currently uses the macro pgd_offset_k).
 Suppress GCC warnings.
 Fix the vsock use of exported symbols from from vmci module problem.
 Fix the ether_setup() (misplaced) problem introduced by the previous 
 patch (the NAT network connection problem).
 Fix other known issues.
 This script was written by me [pyth0n3] to download and apply the patch 
 automatically
