Thanks, I already found out this was the case.
I was a bit confused because the default did not work right away.
On a clean system

apt-get install --no-install-recommends linux-headers-`uname -r` open-
vm-dkms open-vm-tools

does the trick and everything seems to work just fine - the linux-
headers were needed because of #509865.

I am very happy, this is very useful for adoption of Ubuntu.
