Question No support for VMWare Server?

Official VMWare Appliance FAQ
http://www.vmware.com/appliances/learn/faq.html
Q: Can virtual appliances be deployed on any VMware product?
A: Virtual appliances will run unmodified on all of VMware’s hosted products (VMware Player, VMware Workstation and VMware Server for Windows and Linux as well as VMware Fusion for the Mac). When built according to best practices, virtual appliances should also be simple to import to VMware Infrastructure 3. Get started deploying virtual appliances.

However when I downloaded an image of openSUSE, I discover that it will not work with VMWare Server, only Player or Workstation...Why is that?

some of the features/virtualized hardware that these images use are not supported by server

i THINK that server 2 might, but I haven't had time to test them yet.
