How to get VMware working under linux.

  • First download a version of VMWare, I have last used this distribution File:Vmware-7.1.6.bundle and to install simply use the following command:
sudo sh VMware-Workstation-Full-7.1.6-744570.x86_64.bundle

Now you need to update the linux headers with the following script File:Patch-modules 3.2.0.sh and patch File:Vmware-715-kernel32.patch: 

sudo ./patch-modules_3.2.0.sh

Additionally you may have to run the console rebuild if the <code>/dev/vmmon</code> is missing File:Vmware-player-console-rebuild.sh

sudo ./vmware-player-console-rebuild.sh
